9-11 ROSTROPOVITCH Mstislav. Notice sur la vie et les travaux de M. Henry Moore.
(Commemorative address on the life and works of Mr. Henry Moore. Rostropovitch recalled his visit to Much Hadham, his tour of the estate, and how he played Bach on his cello to the people present at that time. Despite his love for the French language, Rostropovitch decided that it would be best if he concluded his address by playing a piece of music in honour of Moore: the finale of Benjamin Britten's 3rd Suite of his last cello work).
