Dear Tim,

Sorry to be bugging you about the violin sonata (again)...

Since the recording of it has already been issued, which means there
must be a readable manuscript. Would that be available for purchase
or download?

By the way, the Jazz concert we had last night was very successful,
featuring Op. 36, Op. 40 no. 2, Op. 45, Op. 96, and Op. 118. The
audience were pleasantly surprised to discover such beautiful music,
and we were very happy to have brought it to the audiences here in
Hong Kong.

Regards,

Ernest
