My mum shared this with me recently. My great-great grandfather received a letter from composer Ralph Vaughn-Williams as he used to sing in a choir which he ran!
This was pretty exciting to hear!
There's another story from my relatives regarding well-known musical personalities but I'm not sure whether to believe it is true or not until I can see the end credits of a film to see if it is true and gives evidence that would confirm this.
How exciting to have in your possession an authentic letter from the famous composer Vaughn William. I went online looking for authentic letters of Vaughn William and the signature and the writing are the same as on other letters. That letter is worth a lot of money.

My dad had a handwritten letter from Enid Blyton, in which she justified making the golliwog a naughty character . Unfortunately somebody threw it away by mistake!
