March 18, 1944
My dear Nadia,
I don't have a memory for dates but it seems to me that it was in March 1935 that your dear
mother died, nine years ago . . .
I will not forget her in my prayers. I am thinking of you and send you my fondest wishes.
Your
I Str.
[P.S.] Tomorrow is the centenary of my dear Rimsky Korsakov.
Stravinsky à Boulanger
Hollywood,
le 18 mars 1944
Ma chère Nadia,
Je n’ai pas la mémoire des dates mais il me semble que c’était en mars 1935 que votre chère
mère était décédée, il y a neuf ans…
Je ne l’oublierai pas dans mes prières. Je pense à vous et vous embrasse très affectueusement.
Votre
I Str.
[P.-S.] Demain c’est le centenaire de mon chère [sic] Rimsky Korsakov.
