Dear Mr. Sacher,
Mr. Henze is on holiday in Africa.* Upon his departure
he received your letter and asked me to tell you to
please use the best guitar player possible for "Cantata
della Fiaba Estrema". In case you have difficulties
in finding one in Switzerland, please write to Mrs.
Renate Praetorius, 8 München 23, Kaiserstr. 42, for
the address of a guitar player who is well acquainted
with Mr. Henze’s music und plays it frequently. his
name is Ferstl.
Mr. Henze asked me to tell you that if you wish to
play his work with solo strings, it is‡ alright with
him.
Best regards,
charles h smith
