It was only a couple of years ago that I learned from a book that Alma Mahler planned every detail of her own funeral--especially the music.
Not one piece was by Gustav.
I'd say that's a good sign that her resentment ran bone-deep.
Oh well.
To quote Thackeray:
It was in the reign of George II that the above-named personages lived and quarreled; good or bad, handsome or ugly, rich or poor, they are all equal now.
