From R. Vaughan Williams,
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking.
Jan 22 [1937]
Dear Sir Henry Wood
I listened in with great interest to your performance of my symphony
– It seemed to be an excellent performance as far as I could judge & I don’t like the work itself much – but that is another question1
Yours sincerely
R Vaughan Williams
1. UVW says that VW disliked various symphonies at various times – she suggested the fourth symphony in this case.
