Dear Lensk:

What a beautiful letter you wrote me for my birthday! I shall treasure it always. And what a deep satisfaction it is for me to know that we’ve sustained our feeling for each other all these many years. It’s a joy + that’s what it is. And just imagine what it means to me to see you prepare and conduct my music with such devotion and love and musical sensitivity — for that alone I am forever in your debt.

Un brazo — and love

Aaron
