Scope and content
Handed in at GHX New York. - Has dispatched 'Mother night and sovereign Zeus' [music for the production of Trevelyan's translation of Aeschylus's "Oresteia" by the Cambridge Festival Theatre]: 'ought never to have boasted [he] could tackle this quickly'. Pencil note on back seems to be Trevelyan's draft reply: all music sent is being used, Gordon Jacob is scoring and completing it.
