November 24, 1972
Dear Théodore,
There is nothing to say to your letter, and yet everything to say to you.
We are “revolted” by some facts, which will basically disappear very quickly; and we hold on to
such memories here!
Today we are going to sing “Ave Maria,” “Pater [Noster]” and “Pastorale,” and we have no
doubt that everything else holds no weight next to this music of such spiritual and musical
importance.
I am thinking of you, of Denise, and am, with all my heart, your
NB.

Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky
24 novembre 1972
Cher Théodore,
Il n’y a rien à répondre à votre mot, et pourtant tout à vous dire.
Nous sommes « révoltés » par certains faits qui au fond disparaîtront bien vite, et nous
gardons présents de tels souvenirs !
Nous allons chanter aujourd’hui l’Ave Maria, le Pater et la Pastorale et nous savons bien
que le reste ne pèse rien à côté de cette musique d’une telle signification spirituelle et
purement musicale.
Je pense à vous, à Denise, et suis de tout cœur votre,
NB.

Dear Théodore,
How my thoughts are particularly close to you in these days once celebrated with joy, but
nothing has disappeared and Peace prolongs the past. I’m happy that you gave the article to
Zygmunt, he is so moved by it. As for H. Monnet’s article, he is certainly right in his enthusiasm,
but is it his place to dig up these stories and stir up controversy? I do not know what to think,
because to let it happen is so revolting.
If you only knew of Mitell.
Yours with tenderness and in deep thought,
Nadia B.
P.S. I have nevertheless telegraphed Vera, telling her that I understand her immeasurable
distress, because I still hope that she gives in and can at least sleep. What a terrible ending.

Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky
16 juin 1971
Cher Théodore,
Que mes pensées sont particulièrement près de vous en ces jours jadis célébrés avec joie,
mais rien n’a disparu et la Paix prolonge le passé. Suis heureuse que vous donniez
l’article à Zygmunt, il en est si touché. Quant à l’article d’H. Monnet, il a certes raison
dans sa ferveur mais y a-t-il lieu de remuer ces histoires et de créer une polémique ? Je ne
sais que penser, car laisser passer est si révoltant.
Qu’avez-vous su de Mitell.
Avec tendresse, en profonde pensée votre,
Nadia B.
P.-S. Ai pourtant télégraphié Vera lui disant que je comprends son incommensurable
détresse car j’espère encore qu’elle se rend et peut à peine s’endormir. Quelle fin
terrible !

May 11, 1971
Dear Théodore,
A letter from Figaro deeply disappointed me, “The article is too long,” they say. I asked them to
send it back to me, and as soon as I return to Paris, I will take care of its publication. I believe the
performance of the Mass will work itself out one of these days, it has to, but . . . I want to hope.
I never leave you!

Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky
11 mai 1971
Cher Théodore,
Une lettre de Figaro m’a vivement désappointée « l’article est trop long » disent-ils, je
leur ai demandé de me le renvoyer, et dès mon retour à Paris, m’occuperai de sa
publication. Je crois que l’exécution de la Messe va se décider ces jours-ci, il faut mais…
je veux espérer.
Ne vous quitte pas !

Geneva
April 21, 1971
Dear Nadia,
Théodore wants to think of nothing but the deliverance, thank God, of his beloved father. With
marvelous courage, he offers to God his pain as a son, and he confronts the whole situation,
certainly with pain, but with a spirit that will keep its serenity. As much in New York as in
Venice, we have constantly felt your faithful friendship, love, and the admiration that you have
had for our dear father. For Théodore and for me as well, I say to you, our great and dear Friend,
thank you for your prayers, for your constant thoughts, and your comforting friendship. I am
attaching to this letter a text that Théodore wrote just a month ago (and dedicated it to you), and I
would ask you be so kind as to have it read to you. I find it admirably refreshing, pure, and,
today, so upsetting. It is to accompany an album of records [that were] edited in Japanese in
Japan. We have to send it back to Tokyo at the beginning of May, but Théodore, according to his
contract, is free to have it published wherever he wants beforehand.
Given the tragic events, we wondered if it wouldn’t be an opportune moment to publish this text
in France, without delay, in an important newspaper and we thought about [Le] Figaro, in the
weekly literary insert. But unfortunately, we no longer know anyone! Nobody. In Geneva they
would take it right away, but the circulation would be too limited. If the text resonates with you,
dear Nadia, could you suggest to whom we should possibly address it, and better yet, could you
yourself speak to the Editor?
We have a series of contemplative photos of my dear father-in-law amid the members of his
family that (as is the case with Théodore’s text) shows a little-known side of Strawinsky that the
children would be happy to see returned to its [rightful] place, since, for a long time, [people]
have been working to erase the memory of a family life that was so deep, so true, so beautiful,
and which is engraved in the hearts of Igor and Catherine’s children, hearts which today have
been so painfully hurt.
I am ashamed to take your precious time, but I know you will forgive me.
Allow us to send you all our love along with our deep and grateful affection.
Denise

21 avril 1971
Genève
Chère Nadia,
Théodore ne veut penser qu’à la délivrance, remercier Dieu pour son bien aimé père. Sa
douleur de fils il l’offre avec un merveilleux courage et il affronte toute la situation, avec
douleur certes mais avec une âme qui veut garder toute sa sérénité. Votre fidèle amitié,
l’amour et l’admiration que vous aviez pour notre cher père, nous les avons constamment
sentis présents tout à New York qu’à Venise. Pour Théodore et pour moi aussi, je vous
dis, chère grande Amie, merci de vos prières, de vos constantes pensées, de votre
réconfortante amitié. Je joins à ces lignes un texte que je vous demanderais d’avoir la
bonté de vous faire lire, que Théodore a écrit il y a un mois à peine (et vous l’avait
dédié). Je le trouve admirable de fraicheur, de pureté, et aujourd’hui combien
bouleversant. Il soit accompagné un album de disques édité au Japon, en japonais. Nous
devons la remettre à Tokio [sic] début mai, mais Théodore, d’après son contrat, est libre
de la faire paraître avant et où il veut.
Étant donné les tragiques événements nous nous sommes demandé s’il ne serait pas
opportun de faire paraître ce texte, sans tarder, en France, dans un journal important et
nous avons pensé au Figaro dans la feuille littéraire hebdomadaire. Mais nous n’y
connaisseur, hélas ! plus personne. A Genève ou [sic] le prendrait tout de suite, mais la
diffusion en est trop limitée. Si le texte trouve en vous, chère Nadia, un écho, verriez-
vous la possibilité soit de nous dire à qui nous adresser soit, et mieux encore, en parler
vous-même à la Rédaction ?
Nous avons une série de photographies méditer [sic] de mon cher beau-père au milieu de
siens qui (comme la texte de Théodore) montre une figure de Strawinsky peu connue et
que les enfants seraient heureux de voir remise à sa place puisqu’on travaille depuis déjà
longtemps, à faire oublier une vie familiale qui fut si grande, si vraie, si belle, et qui est
gravée profondément dans le cœur, aujourd’hui si douloureusement blessé, des enfants
d’Igor et Catherine Strawinsky.
Je suis confuse de vous prendre votre temps si précieux mais je sais que vous me
pardonnerez.
Permettez-nous de vous embrasser avec notre profonde et reconnaissante affection,
Denise

parents au cœur de mes souvenirs d’enfant »

February 1, 1971
Dear Théodore,
Your distressing letter affected me so painfully. All that is happening at the moment is
unbearably heartbreaking, and we would like to think it untrue. I am with you with all my heart,
in prayer for him and for those capable of such an act. May God have pity on their misery. We
cannot.
Lovingly yours,
Nadia

Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky
1 février 1971
Cher Théodore,
Votre bouleversante lettre m’atteint bien douloureusement. Tout ce qui se passe en ce
moment est déchirant insupportable et l’on voudrait croire invraisemblable. De quel cœur
je suis avec vous, en prière pour lui et pour ceux capables d’un tel acte. Que Dieu ait pitié
de leur misère nous ne pouvons pas.
Je vous embrasse,
Nadia

Cavalière
December 27, 1970
Very dear Friend,
The year which draws to a close has been a sad, hard, and heavy one—for us and for all our
friends. Denise and I have twice mourned [the loss of loved ones]: in addition to her mother,
three months ago we lost our dearest friend in Geneva, Madame Casaï, (Marie-José’s lady-in-
waiting) who was a real sister to us. And what can we say about the real drama that is playing
out around my father who is already three-quarters in the hands of God? It’s in such moments
that the real values appear to our eyes from the heart, and one feels their unique importance: real
friendships, real commitment, and profound faith. You know, dear Nadia, the place in our hearts
your friendship occupies, resolutely linked to my father and to my mother. It’s all that matters.
We would like to be able to erase all of the rest. Alas! It’s not so easy.
We are just here a few days to rest, and we’ll be returning to Geneva as of January 5 or 6.
On the threshold of 1971, Denise and I remind you of everything that our hearts so affectionately
desire for you,
Théodore

Théodore Strawinsky à Boulanger
Cavalière
27 décembre 1970
Chère grande Amie,
Voici une bien triste, dure et lourde année—pour nous comme pour tout de nos amies–
qui s’achève. Pour Denise et pour moi par deux fois endeuillée : outre sa maman nous
avons perdu, vois 3 mois, notre plus chère amie à Genève, Madame Casï (dame de
compagnie de Marie-José) qui était une vraie sœur pour nous. Et que dire du véritable
drame qui se joue autour de mon pauvre père déjà trois-quarts entre les mains de Dieu !
C’est un de tels moments que les vraies valeurs apparaissent aux yeux du cœur et que
l’on ressent leur unique importance. Les vraies amitiés, le vrai attachement, les fidélités
profondes. Vous savez, chère Nadia, la place que la vôtre occupe dans notre cœur,
indissolublement liée à mon père et à ma mère. C’est tout ce qui compte. Le reste, on
voudrait pouvoir l’effacer. Ce n’est, hélas ! pas si facile.
Nous sommes ici juste quelques jours pour nous détendre, serons de retour à Genève dès
le 5 ou 6 janvier.
Au seuil de 1971, nous vous disons, Denise et moi, tout ce que notre cœur souhaite pour
vous avec notre plus profonde affection.
Théodore

Very dear Friend,
Once again your note upset me. No, I did not know anything about this interview or, rather,
pseudo-interview: When I think about this summer when we saw my father in Evian every day,
he was totally incapable of associating two ideas or two sentences in a row, having never even
understood that he was in Evian and no longer in New York! But the drama that surrounds him is
so great nothing surprises me . . .
Would you be so kind as to give me—by return mail if possible—the reference of the journal
that published the text and the date it came out, so that I might find it?
You understand us, I know, and you know how much all this tears us apart. Thank you
wholeheartedly. How I would love to see you!
Denise and I send our love and all of our deepest affection,
Théodore

Théodore Strawinsky à Boulanger
Genève
20 novembre 1970
Chère grande Amie,
Une fois de plus votre mot me bouleverse. Non, je ne sais rien de cette interview ou
plutôt pseudo-interview : quand je pense que cet été où nous avons vu mon père à Evian
chaque jour, il était totalement incapable d’associer deux idées ou deux phrases de suite,
n’ayant même jamais compris qu’il était à Evian et non plus à New York ! Mais le drame
est si grand autour de lui que tout me parait possible…
Auriez-vous la grande bonté de me donner—par retour de courrier si possible—la
référence, c. à. d. la revue qui a publié ce texte et la date de la parution, afin que je puisse
le procurer.
Vous nous comprenez, je le sais, et vous savez combien tout cela nous déchire. Merci de
tout cœur. Comme j’aimerais vous voir !
Nous vous embrassons, Denise et moi, avec toute votre profonde affection.
Théodore

Dear Théodore,
Without a doubt you have received this interview with your Father, a seemingly implausible
interview in all respects.
What can you do, what do you think? Need I tell you with what fondness I am constantly near to
you and Denise. Such drama has played out in this long and terrible battle,

Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky
18 novembre 1970
Cher Théodore,
Sans doute avez-vous reçu cette interview de votre Père, interview qui semble à tous
égards invraisemblables.
Que savez-vous, que pensez-vous ? Dois-je vous dire de quel cœur je suis sans cesse
auprès de vous et Denise. Quel drame se joue dans cette longue et terrible lutte.
NB.

Dear Théodore,
How kind of you and Denise to have written me.
Death’s great mystery is around your Father, and whatever his faith and our submission may be,
it is certainly a painful time in its stress and severity.
I am with you constantly and send all my love,
NB.

Cher Théodore,
Que vous êtes bons, Denise et vous, de m’avoir écrit.
Le grand mystère de la mort est autour de votre Père, et quelle que soit sa foi et notre
soumission, c’est un moment bien douloureux dans son anxiété et sa gravité.
Je suis avec vous constamment et vous embrasse de tout cœur.
NB.
