Dear George
Undoubtedly the enclosed comes too late. Maybe it is
also against your usual procedure to print the texts in your
program book, but just in case you approve of the idea
of passing out the printed text along with the program
I enclose the 2 texts to the 2 biblical works.
I should have thought of the program book before,
especially since the one 2 years ago, when I played my concerto
under Reiner, omitted to tell (much to his dismay) that I was
his pupil at Curtis - it also contained other errors, such as
my domicile which was listed as "Boston" - W[[?]]ll I trust all this will be correct this time, if there are such things as
programnotes at all for these summer concerts. And if not, tant-pis. It isn't that important.
Thank you and `a biento^t
Sincerely
Lukas
