Dear Mr Susskind
It is a great distress to me that I cannot hear your concert on the 14th – I promised months ago that I would conduct (!) at Oxford on the 14th – I shall think of you & can only hope that I shall have the pleasure and opportunity some other time.1
Yours sincerely
R Vaughan Williams
1. VW conducted Let us Now Praise Famous Men and Serenade to Music in the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford on Saturday 14 June 1952. Susskind was conductor of the Scottish National Orchestra, and conducted the London Symphony Orchestra in the Royal Festival Hall on 14 June. Fantasia on Four Scottish Tunes by Cedric Thorpe Davie was included in the concert.
