Rosalyn Tureck, a teacher's teacher's teacher
Tureck was a key early influence and instructor (in New York City, 1950s/1960s) to  my own conservatory teacher in childhood and adolescence (at UMKC, Kansas City, 1970s/1980s). I enjoyed from age 8 to 17 the rare privilege of hearing (at one remove) Tureck's opinions, observations, and insights into the "inner room" of the great composers. Although Tureck remained friend and confidant to my teacher&mdash;a thrill it was he shared with me some (vsmall?) part of her correspondence, including working drafts of articles, photocopies of unpublished Bach manuscripts, etc.&mdash;we never met in person. (But why would we?) It was, and is, my teacher's early death from AIDS &mdash; his illness kept a secret from me as I left for college in the  "mysterious East"  &mdash; that I regret. But Tureck is proof positive that teachers can have profound, unbending influence "at one remove". Lesson I'll not soon forget.

Anyone know what month Tureck graduated from Tuley High School in Chicago? Was it January 1932, with her friend Saul Bellow? Or was it earlier (or later) than that? &mdash; Sandover (talk) 06:51, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
