Dear Svend and David

I'm so happy to learn that you made a recording together. I had many times the opportunity to play with you both, and I appreciate your great talent.

What a pleasure this association of the violin and the mandolin.

Good success and love,

Stephane Grappelli
Paris, September 1987
