CHARLES KOECHLIN (private correspondence)
... I went to hear the Psalm of Mr Goué, and I found this work very touching, very significant…/... I appreciated a lot, especially, the Quintet touching and powerful, and so full with interior life.../… I would have especially liked to say to you as I found beautiful the melodies of Goué…/…The hearing of the fragments of Wanda was very touching. We especially appreciated the 2nd piece with its evocation of the ocean…/… I like a lot the Trio with cords, particularly.
