Influential English composer (1872–1958) of symphonies, chamber music, opera, choral music, and film scores. He was also an important collector of English folk music and song. TLS signed “R. Vaughan Williams,” one page, 7 x 9, personal letterhead, April 24, 1955. Letter to Thomas Boyce of Belgium. In full: “Are you any relation to the great Boyce, the eighteenth century English composer? If so, I will abrogate my usual rule about not sending my autograph to strangers, though I cannot hope to compete with the distinguished musical comedy writers whose names seem chiefly to have filled your book. I have no intention of retiring yet.” In fine condition, with central vertical and horizontal folds, and a few paperclip impressions to the left border. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope.
