Unidad documental simple 130 - Postcard from Donald Tovey to R. C. Trevelyan

Postmarked Bore[hamwood]. - Very glad to hear about Johannes Röntgen and will be even more glad to have better news; knew 'the anxiety was in prospect'. It is very 'jolly about the Frauenchor harp things' [Brahms?]; they must 'instantly do them here'. Ariadne repeats 'Theseus' [in Act II of "The Bride of Dionysus"] because she wants him to listen; she uses a quite different tone to that with which she woke him. When he played the first act last night it took fifty-four minutes. Will try to score the prelude now; may make a new sketch of Ariadne's dream first in case it gives hints, though the prelude 'must not anticipate too much'. Discusses the transition from the prison scene to the Labyrinth.
