Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
Royal Northern College Of Music (RNCM)
1979

We are being spoiled with another dated and addressed letter from Griff to Ida. He hopes she's enjoying herself in London.
He's been gardening (accompanied by Suki the cat), managing the Student Union's accounts and watching TV.
He discusses a concert with "well-known people blowing and banging in Hayden's Toy Symphony." He might later listen to a star-studded Der Rosenkavalier.
