Letter
The Hallé, Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths, St James Church Choir at Birch-in-Rusholme
1938

Griff apologises for writing Ida a less than friendly letter before, he had no idea it was so negative. "The only depressions and deflations I have are those horrid periods in between seeing you."
He offers trips to the cinema or walks and is desperate to see her, but shares that while going with her to the Hallé is great, it doesn't really feel the same as being properly with her.
Choir practice at Birch is jolly with some new sopranos singing well but the whole choir has some way to go before they are up to snuff.
