African American composer (1917–1995) best known for his neoclassical style. TLS signed “Uly,” one page, 7.25 x 10.5, Broadcast Music Inc. letterhead, December 7, 1967. Kay writes to Carl Haverlin, in part: “Greetings! and just a note to say that I sent you a copy of my new Symphony late last month, and it should have arrived by now. The work turned out very well, and it should make a good impression in performance. I hope that you may be able to come if and when it is premiered. Haven’t heard for sure of a date yet, but will keep you informed.” Some light creasing, toning, and a trivial spot of soiling, otherwise fine condition. RRAuction COA.
