Wetherly Drive Hollywood, California U.S.A. November 7, 1954 Dear, dear friend, What a long time has passed without news from you. I dare not ask you to write to me, but . . . I hope that you have an irresistible desire to do so. The In Memoriam—what music, everything is there. I would like to speak to you about every note, but . . . you know these truths better than me. What we have in our hands is real, concrete, and thus we acquire what I will not have the poor taste to express. When are you coming to Europe? Where, if you are coming? We all need you furiously, but, despite my selfishness, I will choose to leave you to your work. Why are the distances so great and the expenses so high? I would come to see you, but . . . it is only a dream. We’ve recently had a festival—lots of notes, “impressions,” “emotions,” and little music. Many systems, without any real technique, and one quickly perceives that these types of complications are only a crutch. But, no matter what language they choose . . . the result would be in vain, because they produce nothing more than the banal and the odd. Desire is what is missing from their music. Wasn’t able to hear Noces yesterday. Scherchen conducted. It was likely good but dogmatic. Nothing else to tell you that is worth being said. I send my love, thank you and I believe I benefit completely from everything you have given us. With all my heart, your faithful Nadia B � Boulanger à Stravinsky Ecoles d’art américaines Fondation reconnue d’utilité publique Conservatoire de musique – Ecole des beaux-arts Palais de Fontainebleau (36 rue Ballu Paris IX) Monsieur Igor Strawinsky 1260 N. Wetherly Drive Hollywood, California USA 7 novembre 1954 Bien cher Ami, Que le temps est long qui me laisse sans nouvelles de vous—je n’ose pourtant pas vous demander d’écrire, mais…Je souhaite que vous en ayez l’irrésistible désir! L’In Memoriam— quelle musique—tout est là. Je voudrais parler de chaque note, mais…vous savez mieux que moi ces vérités. On a dans les mains du réel, du concret, et ainsi on atteint ce que je n’aurai pas le mauvais gout d’exprimer. Quand venez[-]vous en Europe ? Où, si vous venez ? Nous avons tous un furieux besoin de vous, mais, malgré mon égoïsme, je choisis de vous laisser à votre travail. Pourquoi les distances si grandes, les dépenses si élevées ? Je viendrais vous embrasser, mais…c’est là rêver. Avons eu un festival, dernièrement—beaucoup de notes, « d’impressions », « d’émotions » peu de musique. Beaucoup de systèmes, sans vraie technique—et vite, on s’aperçoit que ce genre de complications n’est qu’une facilité. Mais qu’importe le langage qu’ils choisissent…le résultat serait vain, car ils ne tirent pas plus du banal que du singulier, c’est la salive qui leur manque. N’ai pu entendre hier Noces. Scherchen dirigeait. Ce devait être bien, mais dogmatique. Rien à vous raconter qui vaille [sic] d’être dit. Je vous embrasse, vous remercie et je crois, profite pleinement de tout ce que vous nous donnez.

I beg of you to try to to remain open-minded. If the date must be pushed forward a bit, it will be done. I will be watching for the mail with utmost impatience!! Tuesday I will conduct a concert that the radio kindly offered to celebrate my fifty years as a professor. I wouldn’t dare play music in front of you, but . . . I would love for you to be there, you, who plays such a role in my life. What success for Vera. I am so happy for her. Truly count on my being there on the 6th. What hotel are you staying at?

How the Rome plan tempts me. It is so sad to see you so rarely. I think of Santa Barbara, of those hours with you. Nothing seems more important to me, and yet, I sacrifice them. The so-called “modern” works triumphed, [there was] a violent reaction to Varèse. [The critics] are so old-fashioned and pretentious. Bah! Water rushes, washes them away, and . . . nothing remains.

I don’t know what it means because . . . do you have an age . . . or are you always the same, or better yet, always new? This is only meant to bring you wishes full of affection, fondness, and gratitude. I still don’t know—never know. But with you it’s worse, because everything seems so small and useless. And yet I cannot stop myself from sending you this note that is absolutely filled with my affection. We’ve spoken at length with Nabokov this morning about The Rake. We have been dreaming of a truly homogeneous performance. For so long, the people have needed some perspective to help them see, and curiously, despite your recordings and all the directions you have given them, they continue to “interpret” rather than “to transmit.” But why rebel? It’s always been the same, and despite everything the great works survive. How I miss those beautiful days in Rome, to see you again was such a great happiness, you bring so much to those whom you meet, and as for me . . . I love you so much, Dear Igor, as much as I admire you. And now, enough declarations from such a young and beautiful woman . . . what a lack of restraint! Give Vera my best. I regret that her exhibit left before I was able to prove to her I had looked at it carefully. Best wishes to Bob, my tenderness to Milène, and my constant thoughts to you both. Fond wishes, Nadia B. [P.S.] Could you tell me if Alan Hovhaness has any talent, do you know him? � Boulanger à Stravinsky 11 juin 1955 Cher Igor, Bientôt votre anniversaire—je sais mal ce qu’il signifie, car…avez-vous un âge…ou êtes-vous toujours le même, toujours nouveau, au surplus. Ceci ne veut que vous porter des vœux plein d’affection, de tendresse, et de gratitude. Je ne sais pas écrire, jamais, mais à vous, c’est pire, car tout me parait si petit, et inutile. Et pourtant, je me puis m’empêcher de vous vous [sic] envoyer ce signe si chargé d’attachement. Avons parlé longuement des [sic] Rake’s ce matin avec Nabokov. Nous rêvons d’une exécution vraiment homogène. Pendant si longtemps, les gens ont besoin d’un éclairage qui les aide à voir—et chose curieuse, malgré vos disques et toutes les directives qu’ils donnent, on continue à « interpréter » au lieu de « transmettre ». Mais pourquoi se rebeller ? Il en est toujours de même, et les grandes œuvres survivent, malgré tout. Que je regrette ces beaux jours de Rome, vous revoir a été un si grand bonheur, vous apporte[z] tant à ceux qui vous approchent—et moi…Je vous aime tant, Cher Igor, autant que je vous admire. Allons, assez de déclarations—d’une si jeune et jolie femme…quel manque de retenue ! Dites à Vera toutes mes pensées. Mon regret d’avoir vu partir son exposition sans avoir pu prouver que je l’avais bien regardée. Mille choses à Bob, ma tendresse à Milène, à vous deux mes constantes pensées. Je vous embrasse.

So now your dear old friend is in Peace—which she deserved so well. Like always, I am thinking of you—of our memories—of your mother. I send you my love and send to all three of you my deep affection. Nadia B. [P.S.] Will you be in Venice? I do hope so. [P.P.S.] And the work is so grandly austere, strong—its sonority must be extraordinary. And I am so happy at the thought of seeing your Father again. � Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky 13 août 1956 Cher Théodore, Bien que la mort ait été une délivrance pour votre chère Madubo—je comprends votre peine et suis triste de ne pas vous l’avoir dit quand j’ai appris la fatale nouvelle. Voilà votre chère vielle amie dans la Paix—qu’elle avait si bien méritée—comme toujours je pense à vous—à nos souvenirs – à votre mère—je vous embrasse et vous dis à tous trois mon profond attachement. Nadia B. [P.-S.] Serez-vous à Venise ? Que je le souhaite. [P.P.-S.] Et l’œuvre est si grande austère, forte—sa sonorité doit être extraordinaire. Et j’ai tant de bonheur à la pensée de revoir votre Père. � 1956 Author: Nadia Boulanger Madubo Mina Sviatlski Recipient: Théodore Stravinsky Theodore Strawinsky
