Dilia responds to a letter dated 7 June 1957 in which Boosey & Hawkes promised to send her a not quite final version of the piano lift of the ballet The Prince of the Land of the Pagodas [by Benjamin Britten]. Dilia had not yet received it. Due to the opera director's illness, the National Theatre in Prague has changed the performance plans and will not be presenting THE BRIDGE OF THE BRIDGE. Dilia will not withhold material when B&H needs it. So he's sending it back.
