See Mackenzie's entry in the Oxford DNB. Gauntlett was later appointed Professor of Cello at the Royal Academy of Music. See Sir Anthony Lewis's appreciative Times obituary. 2pp, 4to. On bifolium of good paper, with letterhead printed in black with the College's arms in red. A very good facsimile of Mackenzie's autograph and signature, with twenty-five lines of text. Addressed in manuscript to 'A. Gauntlett, Esq. / 12 Fairholme Road / W Kensington / W.' Begins: 'You will doubtless have heard of our intention to celebrate the centenary of the R. A. M. next July by a week of musical festivities under direct Royal Patronage. So much interest and desire to participate in the movement has been expressed by our old students that we are led to believe that many of them would be willing - if able - to play with the orchestra at one or both of the Concerts which we intend giving. It would be a crowning Triumph to our demonstration if we could muster an orchestra entirely composed of artists trained in the Institution, performing works written by Academicians and led by conductors educated in the R. A. M.' Details are given of two intended concerts.
