Letter from Helen Coates to Leonard Bernstein, April 20, 1955

excerpt: "...[John Latouche] said he had heard a lot of the music of CANDIDE and loved it.. He said he didn't like 'all the words,' but he liked some of them...[Lukas Foss] had heard at NOAC that you will be doing his Song of Songs in Hollywood and was thrilled about it because he says no one does it as well as you."
