Recollections of a Russian Home: A Musician's Experiences. E-book. Formato PDF - 9780243675357

When, some years ago, at the earnest entreaty of friends, I most reluctantly decided to publish my small volume of Recollections I never dreamt that a second edition of it would ever be required. Since that time many kind letters about my book have reached me from different parts of England — many from people I have never seen. These kind letters have given me very great pleasure and I take this opportunity of expressing to the writers my deep gratitude for their encouragement. Also I should like to offer my warmest thanks to my dear friends Miss Lilian Winstanley and Miss Gertrude Gregson for their kind help in connection with this book. Hoping to make the second edition more attractive I venture to enlarge it by adding my description of our visit to Grieg, which will, I hope, interest my readers. The proceeds of the second edition will again be devoted to the Sustentation Fund of the Royal Manchester College of Music.
