Dear Dr. Morawetz:
Thank you for your kind letter of April 4, informing me of
your compositions written in tribute to the life and contributions of my
husband. I appreciate receiving a copy of the score for "The Crucifixion."
I trust that Mr. Rostropovich will soon perform the other composition you
have written in honor of my husband.
It is interesting to note that Dorothy Maynor performed your songs. I have
never had the opportunity to hear her sing except on recordings. Her voice
is lovely.
I will send a copy of the
recent newsletter concerning the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Social
Change, the official, family-sanctioned memorial here in Atlanta.
Enclosed also is a picture of our family taken before my
husband's death. Yoki, the oldest, is just home after her freshman year at
Smith College. They have grown and matured greatly in these five years.
Thank you for your interest and concern, and best wishes.
Sincerely yours,
(Coretta Scott King)
Mrs. Martin Luther King, Jr.
