    Dear Norman, very sad report indeed.
    Had a great pleasure of meeting Marina Wolf on numerous occasions – enormously charismatic lady, she was much more than just a teacher to generations of wonderful musicians. They were her friends, her family, just as she was theirs. She will be missed dearly.
