THE LETTERS OF RALPH VAUGHAN WILLIAMS

From R. Vaughan Williams,
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking.

January 14th 1954.

Dear Mr Fluck,
Sorry for the delay. The arrangements seem very good. I note a slight mistake in the flute and oboe, page 3, bar 2. Also you have altered the tune page 3, bars 5 & 6. Did you do this on purpose? I don’t mind in the least.¹
Your idea of a school opera sounds attractive. But whether I shall ever be able to get so far as thinking of it I don’t know.

Yours sincerely,
R Vaughan Williams
