Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Adrian Boult
Letter No.: VWL895
[About December 1930]
Dear Adrian
Thank you so much – We shd both like to come to one or other if we possibly can – probably Jan 3 or Feb 11
– I am reminded of Lady Jane’s song in “Patience”
“There will be too much of me In the coming by and by”
By the way next time we meet (don’t trouble to write) & if you can remember – what did you think of Tessa Richardson – who once sang for you?
