December 11, 1966
My Dear,
No time to write to you properly. 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.

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.
Voila les troi[s] choses que je tenais a vous dire en reponse a votre bonne lettre du 4
decembre.
Malgre cette lettre « d’affaire » je tiens a vous renouveler mes affections les plus
cordiales que vous connaissez.
Votre
I Str.
P.-S. Tres touche par vos lignes a la mémoire de ma chere fille.

[August] 26, 1929
Dear friend,
I called your home to learn where to find you and was told it was necessary to write to you at
Garganville [sic], which is what I’m doing.
I absolutely need to see you to consult about a matter that is very important to me and concerns
the musical education of my younger son, who is a nineteen-year-old pianist.
Is it possible to see one another? I am staying in Paris for another ten days and I have come here
almost especially to settle his musical education in Paris and would be much obliged if you were
to arrange an appointment for me either here or at Pleyel’s, or (in case it is impossible for you
here) at Garganville,* where, in that case, I will come see you next week.
This weekend (which is to say Saturday, Sunday, and Monday until Tuesday afternoon) I will be
in the country, which is why I would be very grateful if you could send me a short
note by return post so that I will have it before heading to the countryside.
Thank you in advance, dear friend, and believe me to be your dearly devoted,
Igor Stravinsky
*Simply let me know
**How does one find you there?

Cère [sic] amie,
J’ai téléphonné [sic] chez vous pour savoir où vous trouvez et on m’a dit qu’il fallait vous écrire
à Garganville [sic], c’est ce que je fais.
J’ai absolument besoin de vous voir pour vous consulter d’une affaire assez importante pour moi
et qui concerne l’éducation musicale de mon fils cadet qui est un pianiste de 19 ans.
Est-ce possible de se voir ? Je reste à Paris encore 10 jours et je suis venu presque spécialement
pour lui arranger son éducation musicale à Paris et vous serai bien reconnaissant de me fixer un
rendez-vous soit ici, chez Pleyel, soit (en cas qu’il vous est [sic] impossible ici) à Garganville*
[sic] même où je viendrai vous voir la semaine prochaine dans ce cas.
Ce week-end (c. à d. samedi, dimanche, et lundi jusqu`à mardi après-midi) je serai à la campagne
c’est pourquoi je vous serai très reconnaissant de m’envoyer un petit mot de réponse par ret. du
cour. afin de l’avoir encore avant d’aller à la campagne.
Merci d’avance, chère amie, et croyez-moi votre bien dévoué
Igor Strawinsky

Very dear friend,
Thank you with all my heart for the trouble you have taken with this, and please kindly forgive
the haste of my responses.
Attached are the blue pages with my answers written beside them in the margins.
As for the first two questions of your letter—(1) indication of the Psalm numbers and (2) the use
of men’s and children’s voices, and in their absence, women’s voices in the composition—it is
completely essential to include this in the piano/vocal reduction. For the rest, if I remember, I’ve
already spoken to Païchadze about the matter. But my memory fails me to such a point [I have
even forgotten what my Symphonie de psaumes is called] that I can’t seem to remember anything
anymore! It’s becoming terrible.
Please believe in my loyal friendship and my infinite thanks,
Your
Igor Strawinsky

Trés [sic] chère amie,
Merci de tout cœur pour la peine que vous y prenez et excusez-moi magnanimement la hâte de
mes réponses.
Ci-joint les pages bleues avec mes réponses à côté de vos questions sur leurs marges.
Quant aux deux premières questions de votre lettre :
1) l’indication des numéros des Psaumes et 2) la mention de la composition du chœur pour voix
d’hommes et d’enfants avec, à leur défaut, des voix de femmes, très indispensable de l’inserrer
[sic] dans cette réduction de piano et chant de chœur. Du reste, s’il m’en souvient, j’en ai parlé
dans ce sens à Païchadze. Mais la mémoire me fait à tel point défaut que [j’ai même oublié
comment s’appelle ma Symphonie de psaumes] je ne me souviens plus de rien! Ca dévient [sic]
terrible
Croyez à ma fidèle amitié et à ma reconnaissance infinie.
Votre
Igor Strawinsky

Voreppe (Isère)
June 5–8, 1932
How can I thank you, dear Nadia, for your sketches that are so full of a friendship, which is
particularly precious to me since I know only too well the priceless virtues of your heart and
ears!
But, I beg of you, do not be extravagant in finding me things that I love passionately but which
are, because of the dark times in which we live, unaffordable for us other musicians. Leave those
to the rich, if there are any left.
Most fondly,
Your 50-year-old friend*
Igor Strawinsky
*OK, I know it’s “Quinquagenarian,” but the number sounds better

Comment vous remercier, chère Nadia, pour vos esquisses pleinne [sic] d’amitié qui m’est tant
particulièrement précieuse puisque je connais trop bien les qualités inestimables de votre cœur et
de votre oreille !
Mais, je vous en supplie, ne faites pas des folies pour me trouver des choses que j’aime
passionnément mais qui sont, par le sinistre temps que nous vivons, inabordables, pour nous
autres musiciens. Laissons cela aux riches s’il y [sic] a.
Je vous embrasse de tout cœur
Votre cinquantenaire*,
Igor Strawinsky
*quinquagenaire [sic], j’admets, mais le nombre sonne mieux

My very dear friend,
I am still under the influence of yesterday evening’s serene memorial. I really would have liked
to see you, but the number of people going to greet you made it difficult for me.
I am thinking of you, believe me, and please accept these flowers intended for the grave of your
dearly departed.

Very dear friend,
Received your cable this morning. Last night I received, on engraved proofs from Strecker,
pages 27–37 (inclusive) of the last movement of my Concerto in E-flat. I have just finished
correcting them and am sending them to you on the SS Europa. There are still some seven to
eight pages yet to come and I will send them to you as soon as I have them (next week). You can
therefore create the parts from what you have because [if you were to] work from the
manuscript—which has many missing bowings (and also quite a few mistakes that I have not had
the time to correct)—you would have serious difficulty establishing correct parts. I will try again
to obtain a special printing from Strecker for you.* Refer only to the copy (for the orchestral
parts) that you’ve already received from me (that being the corrected proofs of the first and
second movements) and which I’m sending you today.
It was very unexpected, this obsession with having our concert on the first of May, and has taken
us by surprise. I am hopeful that everything will sort itself out, especially when I think that it is
you who will be handling everything.
With deepest affection,
Your
Igor Strawinsky
[P.S.] Have you been able to speak to Mrs. Bliss on the subject of our last conversation?
*because you will be returning your own [current copy] in order to complete the parts.

Très chère amie,
Votre câble reçu ce matin. Hier soir reçu de Strecker les pages 27-37 incl. du dernier mouvement
de mon Concerto en mi bémol en épreuves gravées. Je viens de les corriger et vous les envoie
par le S/S EUROPA. Il nous reste que quelques 7 à 8 pages de la fin que je vous enverrai dès que
je les aurai (la semaine prochaine). Vous pouvez donc faire établir les parties d’après ce que vous
avez car d’après le manuscrit, où il y a beaucoup de coups d’archet qui manquent (et où il y a
également pas mal de fautes que je n’avais pas eu le temps de corriger) on aurait de la peine à
établir un matériel correct. Je tâcherai d’obtenir de Strecker encore un tirage spécial pour vous*.
Rendez seulement à la copie (pour les parties d’orchestre) ce que vous avez déjà de chez moi
(soit les épreuves corrigées de la 1-ère et de la 2-ème partie) et ce que je vous envoie
aujourd’hui.
C’était vraiment inattendu cette fixation au 1er
mai de notre concert et cela nous a pris au
dépourvu. Je veux espérer que tout s’arrangera et que tout se passera bien surtout quand je pense
que c’est vous qui aurez tout cela en mains.
Je vous embrasse très affectueusement
Votre
Igor Strawinsky
Avez-vous pu parler à Mme Bliss au sujet de notre dernière conversation ?
*car vous rendrez la vôtre pour l’extraction des parties [partitions]

Attached are some errors identified after having sent you the first pages of the third part of the
Concerto. I hope that this package reached you and that you sent back a copy.
I am sending you today (on the SS Aquitania that only leaves on the 13th—no ship before then)
the final pages of the movement. So now you have the entirety and I hope you’ll have the time
(too short, in my opinion) to finish the copying and to rehearse it with the musicians. All the
same, what madness to move ahead the date (May 1!) so suddenly without finding out if it would
be physically possible to have the time for the copying and the rehearsals. It was just discovered
that my manuscript was with the engraver, Schott, who sent it back April 9 (the SS Deutschland
left on the 8th—think of the bad luck, and no ship until the 13th) with the final pages (*) that I’ll
send you after tomorrow.
Yours,
I Str.

Très chère amie,
Ci-joint quelques fautes relevées après vous avoir envoyé les première[s] pages de la troisième
partie du Concerto. J’espère que cet envoi vous est bien parvenu et que vous l’avez envoyé en
copie.
Aujourd’hui, je vous envoie (avec S/S Aquitania qui ne s’en va que le 13—pas de bateaux avant)
les dernières pages de ce mouvement. Donc maintenant vous avez le tout et j’espère que vous
aurez le temps (trop juste à mon avis) de finir la copie et de bien r[é]péter avec les musiciens.
Quelle folie quand même d’avancer si brusquement la date (1er
mai !) sans se renseigner s’il
serait matériellement possible d’avoir le temps pour la copie et les répétitions. Il s’est trouvé
justement que mon manuscrit était à la gravure chez Schott qui me l’a renvoyé le 9 avril (le 8
partait le S/S DEUTSCHLAND—pensez quelle déveine et jusqu’au 13 pas de bateaux) avec les
dernières pages (*) que je vous envoie après/demain.
Tout à vous,
I Str.
