"Jorge had in mind to play Godowsky's Johann Strauss Künstlerleben  at his forthcoming 75th birthday tour as grande finale.  Jorge played this piece on several occasions for me telling me: this is a work in progress, no! a lot of work in progress! He had played a lot of Godowsky for me when I was staying with him in Bloomington. We went to Butler University where he kept his scores and could use his Baldwin SD 10 (in his apartment he had a small grand which he never touched).

Jorge Bolet with Mrs Mary Louise Curtis Bok and David Saperton ( Diario de la Marina , 28 December 1934) The Chattanooga Daily Times (14.10.1938) reported that Mrs Bok has said that all she has done and put into the Curtis Institute is justified in this one student.
