Partial ALS, one page, 5.25 x 7, no date, (but circa 1945–1950). Letter reads, “which I have recently conducted several times with the L.P.O. [London Philharmonic Orchestra] I am willing by the way, to conduct the Peter Grimes extract if you wish. Perhaps you would let me know your opinions on this matter. About fee, Mr. Ralph Hawkes (of Boosey & Hawkes, 295 Regent St., W.1) manages all this side of my performances—would you be so good as to contact him direct?” In fine condition. RR Auction COA.
