User-Contributed Transcription Jan 28 1962
Dear Walter:
I have your letter and the contract. Thanks for arranging every-thing so nicely. I like you ridea of the Clarinet Concerto and Warfield on one night, and the Piano Concerto on another. I'll be curious to see what programs you dream up!
As you will note I took the liberty of striking out the paragraph concerning furnishing of parts and broadcast rights since these are matters for Boosey and Hawkes to handle.
All best
Aaron Copland
