I want to thank everyone on the list who responded to my inquiry as to whether or not Olga Rudge had ever made any recordings.  I guess it's pretty clear that she didn't, but I still find it odd.  After the advent of recording with a microphone (instead of a horn), somewhere around 1920, many classical string players, Casals, etc., recorded regularly.  With Olga's reputation, it's curious she was not among them.  Anyway, it's a great pity.  How marvelous it would be to hear her today.

Incidentally, I recommend the Anne Conover biography highly.  Basic enough that non-scholars can enjoy it, but plenty of things I had never known before.  And a great love story.
