He has just lost his mother in tragic circumstances and wasn’t able to copy the scores. He has a great need for this award, is very talented, and a worker—he needs to develop, but he is truly a musician. Did you agree to vote for him? I hope so. He deserves it and has such a need. Tell Winifred if you accept my proposal or not. I think of you constantly, am immersed in the music of the recent meaningful years which were so beautiful, but I don’t abandon the works of the past, which remain so new, so alive. But . . . I will leave off with my superfluous comments. The music is, we are nothing, and words add nothing to it. I would like to see you so much. But I hear you in the silence and believe I understand you, understand what will never be said. My fond wishes to you and also to Vera, my thoughts to Bob and my affection to Milène.

Excuse me. 1) Variations dedicated to the memory of Aldous Huxley has nothing to do with his work. The months that this composition took me [to write] were the months when dear Aldous left us (throat cancer) and it was only natural that I dedicated this work to his memory. Of the rest, I am certain (and this does not discourage me) that this music would mean nothing to him (or would displease him) because what he liked was romantic and classical music, to which my composition is very much foreign. 2) I am no longer going to give concerts in Paris after the public’s and the press’s affront at the premiere of my Threni, conducted by myself in one of Boulez's concerts. This decision is final. 3) Moreover, let’s not forget that André Malraux—who (very naturally) is organizing an official event for the centenary of the great Baudelaire—had said not long ago that he considers music to be a secondary art. It would thus be ridiculous to impose on him (Minister of Public Instruction) pieces of a secondary art on such an important occasion. Those are the three things I wanted to say to you in response to your kind letter of December 4. Despite this “business” letter, I wish to underscore my friendship and best wishes, with which you are already familiar. Yours, I Str. P.S. Very touched by your letter in memory of my dear little girl. � * * * Stravinsky à Boulanger 1260 North Wetherly Drive Hollywood 69 Californie Miss Nadia Boulanger 36 rue Ballu, Paris 11 décembre 1966 Chere, Pas de temps pour vous ecrire convenablement. Excusez. 1) Variations dedie a la mémoire de Aldous Huxley n’a rien a faire avec son œuvre. Les mois que cette composition m’a pris furent les mois ou cher Aldous quittait sa vie (cancer de la gorge) et il n’etait que naturel que je dedicasse ce travail a sa mémoire. Du reste je suis certain (et cela ne me decourage pas) que cette musique ne lui dirait rien (ou lui deplairerait) car ce qu’il aimait etait la musique romantique et classique, dont ma composition est tres etrangere. 2) Je ne vais plus donner des concerts a Paris apres l’affrond du publique et de la presse a la premiere de mes Threni dirige par moi-meme dans un des concerts Boulez. C’est definitif cette decision. 3) D’autre part, ne l’oublions pas, que Andre Malraux qui (tres naturellement) organise une manifestation officielle pour le centenaire du grand Beaudelaire avait declare il n’y a pas longtemps qu’il considere la musique un art secondaire. Il serait donc ridicule de lui (Ministre de l’instruction Publique) imposer pour une si important occasion des pieces d’un art secondaire.

For Baudelaire’s centenary, the Minister, Mr. André Malraux, would like to organize an event to pay tribute to the musician who has dominated, to say the least, this century. Therefore, would you agree to come to conduct the French premiere of the work dedicated to the memory of Aldous Huxley along with the Symphonie de psaumes and [other pieces] of yours that you would choose yourself? In the event that you would be interested in accepting, under what terms would you like the concert to be organized? What fee, how many rehearsals, and naturally, Bob? Could you send me a night letter collect telling the dates, fee, number of rehearsals, Bob? You would then receive an official letter confirming the invitation. Malraux attaches extreme importance to this project as does Rufina Ampernova. He’ll write to you later, I’m so anxious to read this work dedicated to the memory of Aldous Huxley. Could you help me with this? I send all my love.

Prince Pierre was so close, so necessary, [he has left] a very deep emptiness. But I am happy to know that you are finally at home. I hope so much that Denise truly feels better. Saw your Father in Berlin. His new work is moving was very beautiful—he himself is full of ideas, of conviction, but it’s sad that his physical state weighs so heavily on him. I was so happy to have spent those few hours with him. His joy about the new house is extraordinary. [He has] the enthusiasm of someone whose future lies before him, yet . . . He knows, but he acts, lives, and feels with a heightened acuity, as if he has nothing more to lose. A very beautiful courage and inner strength. You have told me nothing about Kitty, are you also preoccupied? How I think of you both, of your Mother, of Mika, on the 28th! All my love, Nadia. � * * * Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky 24 novembre 1964 Cher Théodore, Merci de votre pensée, elle m’est douce à un moment très douloureux. Le Prince Pierre était si proche, et si nécessaire, vide très lourd. Mais je suis heureuse de vous savoir enfin chez vous, j’espère tant que Denise se sent vraiment mieux. Vu votre Père à Berlin, nouvelle œuvre émouvante très belle, lui, plein d’idées, de conviction, mais triste son état physique lui pèse tant. Quel bonheur d’avoir passé ces quelques heures avec lui, sa joie de la nouvelle maison est extraordinaire, l’ardeur d’un être qui a l’avenir devant lui, et pourtant…Il sait, mais il agit, vit, et sent avec une acuité accrue, semble-t-il ne plus rien perdre. Très beau de courage, de force intérieure. Vous ne me dites rien de Kitty, êtes-vous aussi préoccupé ? Que je pense à tous deux, à votre Mère, à Mica, le 28 ! Je vous embrasse.

Tri. 57-91 November 24, 1964 My Friend, I will be with you on Saturday with such great loyalty and emotion. I see everything again, as if it were yesterday... Words are pointless, we know what lives in our hearts, protected by silence. I’ve returned—from Monaco—days of intense sadness, and yet so luminous. I knew Pierre of Monaco very well and loved him a great deal. Everything he left behind will help us live despite what he takes with him. I don’t know if you could have known that he was truly so secret, so alone, and yet so rich. The Foundation held on so tightly to the hope that this project would be realized, the only one that appeared to me as the most beautiful, most appropriate [one], so everything is under consideration again. But I believe their budget will not permit them to plan for what hasn’t been discussed but surpasses their available funds. I am, as always, with you, and I believe I understand you, see you, and always love you with all my heart, Nadia B � * * * Boulanger à Stravinsky 36 rue Ballu Paris IXè , France Tel. TRI. 57-91 24 novembre 1964 Mon Ami, Avec quelle fidélité et quelle émotion je serai avec vous samedi. Je revois tout, comme si c’était hier… Les mots sont vains, nous savons ce qui vit dans nos cœurs, protégé par le silence. Suis rentrée—Monaco—ces jours d’une si grande tristesse, si lumineux pourtant. J’ai bien connu, beaucoup aimé Pierre de Monaco, tout ce qu’il laisse aidera-t-il a [sic] vivre en dépit de tout ce qu’il emporte. Je ne sais si vous avez pu savoir qu’il était vraiment, si secret, si seul et pourtant si riche. La Fondation tenait tant à la réalisation de ce projet, le seul qui me paraissait et le plus beau et le plus juste que tout est encore à l’examen. Mais je crois que leur budget ne leur permet pas d’envisager ce qui n’est pas discuté mais dépasse les disponibilités. Je suis, comme toujours, avec Vous, et je crois que vous entends, vous vois, et toujours vous aime de tout mon cœur, Nadia B � 1964 Author: Nadia Boulanger Nadia Location: 36 rue Ballu Prince Pierre of Monaco Recipient: Igor Stravinsky
