MA #3

Dear So-and-so,

My name is Blah Blahh and I have been taking some bass lessons from Mr. Nameless, who I am told is a good friend of yours. He has been teaching me about François Rabbath’s teaching methods and positioning system for bass. I am majoring in performance on bass, and am greatly interested on this subject so I am going to be doing a research paper on it.

Mr. Nameless has told me that you wrote your thesis on Rabbath and did a lot of research yourself. I am writing to request a copy of your thesis, if you would be so willing to share it with me, in hopes that it can help me to write my own paper on these methods and tell me more than a textbook could.

Thank your for your time.
Sincerely,
Blah Blahh
