No, no!  You can't use such a poor source for program notes.  I'll find you one soon and get back to you.

When do you need it by?  I actually think I'll write it up for you.  I have a solid background in Liszt scholarship.

Crunch time.  I'm extremely busy. I'll be able to get something worked up on the 15th of December.

I think it may not be a good idea to get someone to do the program notes for you because after all the examiners will ask you some questions about it then if you can't answer they will know its not your own work and you plagiarised one way or another.
