Dear Igor,
Finally—a promise kept—I am sending you your Pater and Credo in the same package! Sorry
about the Sonata, it is not really my fault, but I hope [to send it] next week. Thank you for
Haïeff. Yes, you are a part of the Fund. I asked you when you were still living in Paris, in 1936, I
think.
Give my best to Vera, and know both of you that I am there where you are, with all my heart. My
God, what I would not give to see you again,
Yours,
Nadia B

Cher Igor,
Enfin—une promesse tenue—par le même courrier je vous envoie le Pater et le Credo ! Pardon
pr. la Sonate—ce n’est vraiment pas de ma faute—mais j’espère, la semaine prochaine. Merci
pour Haïeff, oui, vous faites partie de la fondation. Je vous l’avais demandé quand vous étiez
encore à Paris, en 1936, je crois.
Embrassez Véra—et sachez tous deux que je suis là-bas où vous êtes, de tout cœur—Mon Dieu,
que ne donnerais-je pour vous revoir.
Votre
Nadia B

Art is born of constraint, lives of struggle, dies of liberty.

You cannot know the pleasure that you brought me, Dear Igor, and . . . what a lesson in this
score!
Koussev[itzky] is putting on Oedipus and “is thinking” about doing it on the same day as the
Symphony—we are so delighted, but . . . you will not see it!
Many warm wishes, and with very profound affection. A kiss for both of you,

Dear Igor,
How dear your thoughts are to me. How I miss you, you and Vera. It is so silly, we have so little
time, [it is] fleeting, and we make such poor use of it! I do, at least. Undoubtedly, in facing this
dreary, mundane work, one makes a living, but . . . that which we’re given passes quickly, and
we miss our only true opportunities by losing contact with those we love.
When will you be in NY? Can you not come as far as here? I’ll doubtless see you, at least I will
do my best. But I would so like for my students to speak to you, or rather, to listen to you.
I’m sending you the Sonata in the same package. Sorry to be so late. You couldn’t imagine the
dreadful, absurd life I lead. It’s ridiculous, and inexcusable, but one cannot escape the system.
And yet . . . one really must!
This week is my week of reflection, a good twenty-five years since my little sister died, [and] on
Friday it will be eight years since Mother is no longer [with us]. I ask myself: Which is greater,
the inconsolable pain of having lost them, or the enduring joy of having lived in their shadow
and their light? You know, don’t you, that I never forget your mother, nor Catherine, nor Mika—
and in my memories, they hold a very real place. I see them, and it is my consolation, this
certainty of neither being able nor wanting to forget.
A thousand questions run through my mind—I would like very much to know what you have
done, how you are, etc. etc. All this winter, I have lived with your work, and every day I
understand better all that, though knowing it note by note, one never completely understands.
What the works, the true works, contain is inexhaustible.
But excuse all these excessive and awkward words—one alone would have sufficed—see you
soon.
You are going to receive a note from Tom Whittemore. He is arriving from Turkey where he was
working in [Hagia] Sophia and is a great friend of the Princesse de Polignac. I would be happy if
he were able to see you. He truly hopes to, and deserves it, because he is one of those really good
people.
Kiss Vera, and know that I am always wholeheartedly yours.
Nadia B.
[P.S] Is there a way to have the Scherzo and the end of the symphony (orchestral [part])?

Cher Igor,
Que votre pensée m’est [sic] chère. Que je vous regrette, vous et Véra. C’est si bête—on a un
peu de temps, fugitif—et on le dépense si mal ! Moi, du moins—sans doute, on fait face au petit
misérable devoir matériel, on gagne sa vie, mais…ce qui nous est donné passe vite, et nous
perdons nos seules vraies chances en perdant le contact avec ceux que nous aimons.
Quand serez-vous à NY. Ne pouvez-vous venir jusqu’ici. Moi, je vous verrai sans doute, du
moins je ferai l’impossible. Mais je voudrais tant que mes élèves puissent vous parler, vous
écouter plutôt.
Je vous envoie la Sonate par le même courrier pardon d’avoir tant tardé. Vous ne pouvez [pas]
vous imaginer la vie effroyable et absurde que je mène. C’est idiot, et sans excuses, mais
l’engrenage, on n’échappe pas. Et puis…il faut bien !
Cette semaine est ma semaine de retraite, bien 25 ans que ma Petite est morte, vendredi 8 ans que
Maman n’est plus. Je me demande ce qui domine, l’inconsolable douleur de les avoir perdues, ou
l’impérissable joie d’avoir vécu dans leur ombre, et de [sic] leur lumière. Vous savez n’est-ce-
pas, que je n’oublie jamais, ni votre mère, ni Catherine, ni Mica—et dans mes souvenirs, elles
tiennent une place si réelle, je les vois, et c’est notre consolation, cette certitude de ne pouvoir ni
ne vouloir oublier.
Mille questions se pressent dans mon esprit—je voudrais tant savoir ce que vous avez fait,
comment vous allez, etc. etc. Tout cet hiver je l’ai vécu avec votre œuvre—et chaque jour je
comprends mieux tout ce que, la connaissant pourtant note par note, on ne comprend jamais
complètement. Ce que les œuvres, les vraies contiennent est inépuisable.
Mais pardon de tous ces mots superflus, et gauches—un seul aurait suffi—à bientôt.
Vous allez recevoir un mot de Tom Whittemore. Il arrive de Turquie où il travaillait à Sainte
Sophie, et est un grand ami de la Princesse de Polignac—je serais heureuse qu’il pût [sic] vous
voir. Il le désire tant—et le mérite, car il est quelqu’un de très bien.
Embrassez Véra, et sachez que je suis toujours de tout cœur votre
Nadia B.
[P.-S.] Y a-t-il moyen d’avoir le Scherzo et le final de la symphonie (orchestre).

Dear Friend,
I will be there on the 9th, for sure. Could you arrange it so that we have seats together (Marcelle,
Haïeff, my godchild and his fiancée) Vera and me? In other words, I will take five seats next to
Vera. It will be so good to meet up for such an occasion. Would Vera truly take care of it for me?
The Concerto went well, and seems clearer, more beautiful to me after this new work. The
musicians were all happy to work with such diligent care. It is so good to see them understand it
and to find therein a calm and dignity too often forgotten.
How I wish I were able to tell you all that I know—but I express myself so poorly—and besides,
your music does not need us to “speak” about it, thank Heaven.
I am sending you a program. I believe you would have loved the whole thing, and this is a source
of courage for me, to have lived in your shadow, [and] by your truth.
My love to both of you, with much tender affection,
N
[P.S.] On this Easter Day, I am close to you both.

Cher Ami,
Donc je serai là le 9, bien sur [sic]. Pouvez-vous arranger que nous ayons des places ensemble
(Marcelle, Haïeff, Mon filleul et sa fiancée) Vera et moi. Je veux dire 5 places que je louerai
mais à côté de Vera. Ce serait si bon de se retrouver pour une telle occasion. Véra veut-elle bien
s’en occuper pour moi. Le Concerto a bien marché, et me semble encore plus clair, plus beau
après ce nouveau travail. Les musiciens étaient tous heureux de travailler avec ce soin
indispensable. C’est bien de les voir le comprendre et y trouver un repos, une dignité trop
oubliée.
Que ne puis-je vous dire tout ce que je sais – mais je m’exprime trop mal, et puis, votre musique
n’a pas besoin que l’on « parle » d’elle, Grâce au ciel.
Je vous envoie un programme. Je crois que vous auriez aimé la tout, et ce m’est une source de
courage que de vivre dans votre ombre, par votre vérité.
Je vous embrasse tous deux, avec tant de tendre affection.
N
[P.-S.] En ce jour de Pâques, je suis si près de vous.

Dear Friend,
Everything has arrived, has been bound, and I am delighted. Sad to be incoherent—you should
receive a very nice letter regarding these two scores. But you know, without my proving it in
words. I understand them, I believe, and I love them as much as I am able to love and admire
[anything].
Only . . . one complaint, are pages 58 and 59 of Oedipus supposed to be hidden from me? They
are missing, negative as well as positive. Would you please go to the trouble of having them
printed and sent to me: N.B., c/o Dominican Sisters Edgewood Madison Wisc.?
Today is your birthday. I have just sent you a sad little telegram. You should receive a “pretty”
letter with flowers all around. But, I send fondest thoughts, and I know that you know how much
I love you.
To you, to Vera, with all my heart,
NB

Cher Ami,
Tout est arrivé, a été relié, et je suis dans la joie. Triste d’être bête—vous devriez recevoir une si
belle lettre à propos de ces 2 partitions. Mais vous savez que sans savoir le prouver par des mots.
Je les comprends, je crois, et les aime autant que je suis capable d’aimer et d’admirer.
Seulement…une réclamation, les pages 58 et 59 d’Oedipus doivent-elle m’être cachées ? Elles
manquent, négatif aussi bien que positif. Voulez-vous bien prendre la peine de les faire tirer et
me les faire envoyer : N.B.
c/o Dominican Sisters Edgewood Madison Wisc.
C’est aujourd’hui votre anniversaire. Je viens de vous envoyer un pauvre petit télégramme. Vous
devriez recevoir une « belle » lettre avec des fleurs tout autour. Mais, je vous embrasse, et je sais
que vous savez combien je vous aime.
À vous, à Vera, de tout cœur,
NB

Dear Friend,
Received the letter, the pages from Oedipus, the newspaper clipping—thank you. Will arrive
August 5 at 11:43 on the “Chief,” truly hoping we will have lunch together. I miss you greatly. In
the peace of this convent, in the midst of these women whose conviction makes them smile,
close to Sister Edward, I forget a little what makes everything more and more intolerable: false
values, false ambitions, false ideas. What can I say: the lack of values, the absence of ideas, and
satisfaction with this emptiness, not too foolish, not too sad.
Even here, where we are not as isolated as we were in Sinsinawa, the air still carries with it a
dust that nothing can stop.
But it is enough to go back into the Chapel, to pick up once again one of the books that remain a
mainstay, then reread one of your works, to say to one’s self that after everything, this alone
shall remain of our miserable time, deserves to endure, and will overcome our errors, our
blindness, our weaknesses.
I am so happy you are there, and what luck that the Sachses are staying in Santa Barbara! I hope
that you will come often. I need you greatly.
All my affection for Vera and for you,
Much love,
Nadia
[P.S.] Sister Edward sends you her thoughts. She prays for you every day.

Cher Ami,
Reçu lettre, feuilles d’Oedipus, coupure journal—merci. Arriverai le 5 août à 11:43 sur le
« Chief », espère bien que nous déjeunerons ensemble. Vous me manquez tant. Dans la paix de
ce couvent, au milieu de ces femmes que leur certitude fait souriantes, près de Sister Edward,
j’oublie un peu tout ce qui rend tout de plus en plus intolérable, fausses valeurs, fausses
ambitions, fausses idées. Que dis-je : le manque de valeurs, l’absence d’idées, et une satisfaction
devant ce néant, pas trop bête, pas trop triste.
Même ici, où l’on n’est plus isolé comme on l’était à Sinsinawa, l’air apporte encore de cette
poussière que rien n’arrête.
Mais il suffit de rentrer dans la Chapelle, de reprendre un des livres qui demeurent les piliers,
puis relire une de vos œuvres, pour se dire qu’après tout, ce qui seul demeurera de notre
misérable temps, vaut de durer, et domine nos erreurs, nos aveuglements, nos faiblesses.
Quel bonheur que vous soyez-là [sic], et quelle chance que les Sachs restent à Santa Barbara !
J’espère que vous viendrez souvent. J’ai tant besoin de vous.
Pour Vera et pour vous, toute ma tendresse.
Je vous embrasse
Nadia
[P.-S.] Sister Edward vous envoie bien des pensées. Chaque jour, elle prie pour vous.

Dear Igor
1) Sister Edward Blackwell Edgewood College, Madison Road
2) have written to Neff[sic]
3) have written to Olga
4) Here are three ex. from the lecture in English
5) To type them in French, she asks 8 to 10 dollars. She must do it by the hour, because she types
slowly in French. What do you think? I will keep the French in the meantime.
6) Will pass all the arrangements on to you, arrival and departure times for Madison.
7) Would you like me to keep the third copy of the lecture? I will send it to you immediately if
you’d prefer to have it. You can give it to me on your way back, as always, if it suits you.
8) Here is the telegram from Neff[sic]
9) Have nothing from Sister E. on the matter. I told her that you agreed to come for a fee of $250
plus expenses. Of course, she simply told me that would be fine.
I hope I haven't forgotten anything. I send you my heartfelt affection and am sad not to see you
before Christmas, but . . . I am always with you,
Nadia

2) ai écrit Neff [sic]
3) ai écrit Olga
4) Voilà 3 ex. de la conférence en anglais
5) pour la taper en français elle demande 8 à 10 dollars. Elle doit le faire à l’heure car elle va
lentement en français, que décidez-vous? Je garde le français en attendant.
6) Vous communiquerai tous les arrangements, heures de départ et d’arrivée pour Madison.
7) Voulez-vous bien que je garde la 3è copie de la conférence. Je vous l’enverrai aussitôt si vous
préférez l’avoir. Vous me la donnerez en revenant, toujours si cela vous convient.
8) Voici la dépêche de Neff [sic]
9) N’ai rien de Sister E. à ce sujet. Lui ai dit que vous consentiez à venir moyennant un
dédommagement de $250 et les frais, c’est entendu, elle m’a seulement dit d’accord.
J’espère que je n’ai rien oublié. Je vous embrasse de tout mon cœur et suis triste de ne pas vous
voir pr. Noël, mais…je suis toujours avec vous.

Dear Vera,
First, business:
1) Do you want to give this package here to Elizabeth?
2) Do you want to give to the Bolms . . . ?
3) Here is the photo—I couldn’t find a frame here, or, [they were] too “beautiful.” In my
opinion, that would hardly suit [it].
4) I’ll send you the exact itinerary for Madison–Chicago.
5) The Hogarth—if you don’t like it, please tell me. I will take it back. I’m not sure
anymore whether I’d like to give it to you or not.
6) I couldn’t find what I wanted for you. I still hope to before your departure.
If gloves, what size?
Do you prefer a scarf, white or pink? Handkerchiefs?
What do I want . . . who knows anymore?
7) Thank you for the pencils, I look forward to [using] each in order.
8) Don’t forget you’re dining at Mrs. Smith’s on the 11th. Her sister is Miss Johnstone—
Boston, 122 Bay State Road.
I’ll write to you—fondly—I think of you all the time. May Christmas be kind to you.
With all my heart,
[unsigned]

Chère Véra,
D’abord les affaires :
(1) Voulez-vous bien remettre à Elisabeth le paquet ci-joint
(2) Voulez-vous bien remettre aux Bolm…..
(3) Voilà la photo – je n’ai pu touver[sic] ici un cadre—ou trop « beau. » Cela n’allait guère
avec moi.
(4) Vous enverrai l’itinéraire exact Madison Chicago
(5) Le Hogarth – s’il ne vous plaît pas, dîtes-je vous en prie. Je le reprendrai. Je ne sais plus
si j’aime vous le donner ou non.
(6) Je n’ai pas pu trouver ce que je voulais pour vous. J’espère encore avant votre départ.
Si gants, quelle pointure ?
Préférez-vous écharpe, blanche, rose ? Mouchoirs ?
Ce que je voulais…qui sait peut-être encore
(7) Merci pour les crayons, j’espère chaque en ordre
(8) N’oubliez pas que vous dinez le 11 chez Mrs. Smith, sa sœur est Miss Johnstone—à
Boston 122 Bay State Road
Vous récrirai – vous embrasse – pense à vous tout le temps. Que Noël vous soit doux.
À vous de tout cœur

My Dears,
We are awaiting the concert with impatience—oh, what this week will have been for you: the
rehearsals. Have you heard any news about Koussev[itsky’s]’s project? All of us would finally
like to know—we miss you a lot.
I hope that all is in order for Madison. You will find your tickets to Chicago. I also wrote to the
University [asking] for the cheque, saying you are a resident.
Fond and heartfelt wishes to both of you,
NB

Mes très Chers,
Nous attendons le concert avec impatience—qu’aura été cette semaine pour vous, les répétitions,
aurez-vous eu des nouvelles du projet Koussev. Enfin, tout, nous voudrions savoir—vous nous
manquez tant.
J’espère que tout est en ordre avec Madison. Vous trouverez vos billets à Chicago. J’ai écrit aussi
à l’Université pour le chèque disant que vous êtes résident.
Vous embrasse tous deux de tout cœur
NB
