Dear Editor,

Ray Porter’s obituary notice of Dorothy Marx (February en) brought back distant childhood memories for me. She and I shared the same piano teacher, the redoubtable Enid Bulow of Sutton, though Dorothy was 15 years my senior. She was a far more accomplished pianist than I ever became, as Mrs Bulow took great pride in her star pupil being awarded an LRAM (Licentiate of the Royal Academy of Music) diploma.
