Krehbiel Edward Henry Dvořák Antonín

My dear Dr. Dvořák, I have heard your symphony at a rehearsal and read the score. I am delighted with it and intend to print an article to help people to understand and enjoy it on Friday. May I call on you on Wednesday to show you the excerpts I have made from the score? On Saturday afternoon I will lecture on “Folk-song in America” at a reception after Women’s University Club. Will you do me the honor to attend and hear the songs which I use for illustration? I am sure you will be interested in the music if not in lecture and the ladies of the Club would be glad to see you. Please drop me a note at and it let me know when to call on Friday and when; if you are willing to see me. With much admiration and respect. H.E. Krehbiel

thrilled by AD's symphony, wants to write an article about it and so asks for permission to visit AD, invites him to his lecture on American folk songs
