Walter's son Kristian is a lutenist too. He lives in Hennef (or Eitorf?)
near Bonn.
Maybe some lutenetter in that vicinity could interview KG about his father's
instruments?
Gernot?

Hi all,
I have not said anything about the man Just that he had this portrait.
Furthermore I never stated that he was Nazi or NSDAP-member or
anything like that.
I've already said that Gusta stated Mr. Gerwig to be a very musical
man. She went there because she wanted to learn something,
And my guess is she did.
Absolutely no need to get touchy here.
If I offended anybody I'm sorry.
Cheers!

Hi,
I know that Gusta Goldschmidt had lessons from him . She found him to
be a very musical man but the story goes she was abhorred to find a
portrait of Hitler hanging on the wall of his study.
Yeah, and someone still got her bike over there, or so the story goes.
N.B. Of course the fact that someone has a portrait of Hitler does not
neccesarily mean that he or she has sympathy for the subject of it.
Or is sympathetic, for that matter. Please state that he was a Nazi or
leave the matter, if you don't mind. Or should we discuss in detail
exactly why Gusta didn't abandon her lessons with him?
