Scope and content
Ashworth Barnes is writing on behalf of the Accrington Chamber Concerts. For the first concert on 12 November, he would like to have a quartet from the College: Mr. Alfred Barker, Miss Kontorovitch, Miss Dorothy Haworth and Mr. Seth Lancaster. On the same evening it is proposed to have Charles Kelly and Norman Allin with Alwyne Bowne as accompanist. In a postscript, Barnes mentions that they would like to have had Toni Maaskoff but the expense of the fare to and from London and the difficulty of rehearsal are in the way. The letter is dated 27 Sep 1909.
