Brodsky is absolutely delighted that Elgar has dedicated his string quartet to the Brodsky Quartet. Walter Hatton has now replaced Fuchs. Brodsky hopes that Elgar has recovered from his severe operation. Brodsky tells Elgar that he plays Elgar's Violin Concerto "almost dayly as other people do their prayers." Brodsky enthuses that Elgar plans to compose a sonata for violin and piano and also a piano and string quintet. Chamber music people now have their due when they have so much admired his choral and orchestral music. The original is dated 30 Dec 1918, and it is unclear when this photocopy was made.
