This MS purports to be of Britten’s realisation of Handel’s aria from the Ode for St. Cecilia for soprano with obligato flute, the continuo part having been arranged for harp.

There is a written out instrumental cadenza, lasting 13 bars . Enid Simon was the harpist for the EOG before Britten replaced her with Osian Ellis (acc. Carpenter). Margaret (Mabel) Ritchie often sang for Britten, this was her copy with her name at top of the title-page.
