Dear Mr. Hinrichsen:
Several weeks ago I sent you all the material for the new version of the Five Orchestra Pieces. You have received the package, but you have not answered. What's the matter? Will you do it, or do you refuse? I must know this, because I don't want this piece so long out of the market. It is one of my most important compositions, and it must be available to all orchestras.
I am sure we could come to an agreement, but you have once to speak to me and to tell me your opinion.
I possess a set of parts, if you are embarrassed by not having one, and I would be ready to make photostatic or microfilm copies of it for you.
I am looking forward to your answer, and am
Most cordially yours,

R.H.
