As I had told you, I wanted to give an informal performance at Indiana University, Bloomington. And upon informing my student of this, I told him: private performance, insisting that he publish nothing before I gave him an exact text for the program. In his excessive joy, the idiot in fact published nothing except for the only thing that he ought not have—and announced the premiere of your Sonata. I just sent him a livid note that, barring a miracle, we could no longer play the Sonata thanks to his “disobedience”— what do you think about this? I’m upset, but, how could I have foreseen that these precautions would be inadequate. If you confirm my decision—place an (X) on the slip of attached paper following “no.” If, given that it is a music school, you choose to overlook it—an (X) following “yes.” But, I will understand (despite my despair), if it is rage that you choose and refuse in a fit of anger. Am proud of my honesty, because . . . You would undoubtedly never have known of his gaffe otherwise. This is not blackmail—I am consoling myself over the fury I’ve felt since yesterday! So terrible! I’ll write Vera another day—first I’m going to confession! With heartfelt affection for both of you, NB � Boulanger à Stravinsky Edgewood College 1000 Edgewood Avenue Madison, Wisconsin 15 Juillet 1942 [recte 1944] Cher Igor, Depuis hier, lutte entre la [sic] désespoir et la rage ! Comme je vous l’avais dit, je voulais donner une audition, informelle, à Indiana University, Bloomington. Et en faisant part à mon élève, je lui ai dit : private performance, en insistant qu’il ne publie rien avant que je lui donne un texte exact pour le programme. Dans l’excès de sa joie, l’idiot n’a en effet rien publié, sauf la seule chose qu’il ne fallait pas dire—et a annoncé la 1ère de votre Sonate. Je viens de lui envoyer un mot fulminant, lui annonçant que, à moins d’une sorte de miracle, on ne pouvait plus jouer la [S]onate, grâce à sa « désobéissance »—qu’en dites-vous? Je suis navrée, mais, comment pouvais-je prévoir que de telles précautions étaient insuffisantes. Si vous confirmez ma décision—mettez une croix sur le petit papier ci-joint à la suite de non. Si, étant donné qu’il s’agit d’une école de musique, vous êtes disposé à passer outre—une croix à la suite de oui. Mais, je comprendrai, (malgré le désespoir), si c’est ma rage que vous choisissez et refusez, dans un mouvement de colère.

I cannot write to you, nor write about your music, because crushing humility overwhelms me and my ridiculous attempt, but I know with unmistakable certainty that I love and understand it as it must be, as it is. What pretension! I know . . . but this is the pretension I have, and every day I thank God for having given me the dignity to measure my weakness, and furthermore the privilege to know what it is. THANK YOU This is a “flippant” letter from a certain point of view, and absurd. This comes from being taught to question and abolish all distance and to assume all liberties. But it’s a child who’s writing it, and undoubtedly there is more [to this] than it seems, but . . . poor little one! And a few stamps to settle the debt. Having stolen $4.36 of the $7.50 from you, I therefore steal from you $0.72 from $15.00, and so as to not alert the police, here is what will spare me further complications. With heartfelt affection, Nadia B � Boulanger à Stravinsky Featherhill Ranch Montecito Santa Barbara, California 4 mars 1944 Cher Igor, Quel Bonheur d’avoir la Sonate—comme je l’aime, comme elle s’équilibre, et comme elle a raison. Ne peux pas vous écrire, ni écrire à propos de votre musique—car alors l’humilité devient écrasante, et la tentative ridicule, mais je sais avec cette certitude qui ne trompe pas que je l’aime et l’entends comme il faut, comme elle est. Quelle prétention ! Je sais…mais cette prétention là je l’ai, et tous les jours je remercie Dieu pour m’avoir donné la dignité de mesurer ma faiblesse, et pourtant le privilège de savoir ce qui est. MERCI La lettre est « flippante » d’un certain point de vue, et absurde, cela résulte de l’éducation donnée, questionner, abolir toutes les distances, et s’arroger toutes les libertés.
