To Yaltah Menuhin,
April 20, [1945?]
; UCLA
Enjoyed hearing that the music she heard on Good Friday reminded Yaltah of listening to Parsifal with Hephzibah and herself. Unfortunately, energetic
non-musical use of Wagner has ruined him somewhat.
Had terrific time with Miss Lewis and her parents [Marutha and Moshe Menuhin] the past winter, and felt that the
children might rush in at any moment. They all saw Yehudi play the extraordinary Bach concert with Landowska
[Yehudi Menuhin and Wanda Landowska performed Bach sonatas together at
New York City's Town Hall on December 20,
1944].
