Content and physical description
ContentMaria and Walter Strebi write to Charlotte Martin about how they were both deeply affected by the announcement of her husband's death, even though they knew of his serious illness. With the following lines they express their sincere condolences. They recall the performance of the funeral piece LIDICE by the Auckland Philharmonic under Rafael Kubelík, during which there was a solemn silence that recalled the departed composer. In their words, ChM must take great comfort that her husband lives on in his works.
