Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Stanford Robinson (BBC)
Letter No.: VWL1594
From R. Vaughan Williams,
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking.
Dec 5 [1941]
Dear Stanford Robinson
I am sorry for my delay in writing to thank you & your colleagues for the P.K.1 Many of my friends have told me how much they enjoyed the performance
My only criticism is that the singers took it all a little too seriously – I suppose they thought that a Mus. Doc. could not possibly intend to write light music.
Yrs
R Vaughan Williams
1. There had been a broadcast performance of The Poisoned Kiss on November 28 (Catalogue of Works 1936/4).
