A 20/20 Legacy: the centenary of the Northern School of Music

Artefact

Letter
Hilda Collens
Northern School Of Music (NSM)
1946

An absolutely adorable, supportive and positive note from Hilda Collens (1883-1956, founder and principal of the Northern School of Music) to Hubert Harry (1927-2010, pianist, student of the Northern School of Music) saying he "will constantly be in my thoughts and prayers" whilst he is in Switzerland and not to worry if his playing don't always achieve the standards he wishes as "I know it will come out right in the end". She ends the letter by reminding him to get fresh air. Good advice.
