Elgar (Edward) Three autograph letters signed, the first addressed to Alfred Littleton, reading "[...] The Kingdom went very well - not superlatively well as the chorus was rather ‘inelastic’ in those portions where they are implicated with the soloists. I wish you had been there. I am hoping to come to town on Wednesday to correct the score & parts: they sent off the whole orchl. Material at once to the firm as Mr Gill had a rehearsal on Saty. Would you let me know if it will be possible to have the whole thing (score & parts) at Wardour St on Thursday morning? [...]", 4 pp., 8vo, Wychnor Park, 7th Oct 1906; with another ALS, reading “[...] One line to say that drinking these particular waters has done me good: my eyes have been worse since I saw you but now the inflammation has departed into my hands - not much but gout is indicated [...]”, Gwalia Hotel, Llandrindod Wells, 14th Dec 1906, and another note (3)
