Dearest Harriet
I have been going through the score of our concerto for the copyist & I find one or 2 mistakes in the pfte part which I send.1
Also the end of the cadenza. – Arnold’s score was not out when I did it so I had to do it from memory – now I’ve got that right.
Wwhen shall I see you again? – I come up for Arnold’s Symphony on Aug 11th – any chance then?
