Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Harriet Cohen
Letter No.: VWL1071
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking
[2 August 1933]
Dearest Harriet
I trust you entirely – please do what you like with the pfte part. – Now about the end – As I said in a former letter – the quotation from Arnold is a mistake for public performance.1 But thinking it over I cannot substitute anything – so please omit it & go straight from the end of the cadenza to the final bars. Good luck to you.
