Helmar Fernback writes, 18 April 1939, “Considering how particular you are to recruit English artists for the chorus, I think the terms offered are unreasonable and unconscionable. In most districts, the dustman receives £4 per week to £4.10.0 per week, — and a pension! Well, well, music in England must be in the Doldrums, but I thought Glyndebourne was above this state of affairs.”
