Stravinsky to Boulanger
1260 Wetherly Drive
March 20, 1943
My dear
Just a word to tell you my joy at receiving your letter, so affectionate as always.
Thank you as well for sending me the Sonata that I was waiting so impatiently for.
We have to be in NY on March 31 (Ritz-Tower). Happy at the possibility of seeing you again
soon
Your
I Str
P.S. The Scherzo and Finale of my Symphony are as difficult to obtain as the rest of the score—
it is not printed—it does little good to complain, as you know.
Stravinsky à Boulanger
Le 20 mars 1943
Chère
Juste ce mot pour vous dire la joie d’avoir votre lettre si affectueuse comme toujours.
Merci également de m’envoyer ma Sonate que j’attendrai avec impatience.
Nous devons être à N.Y. le 31 mars (Ritz-Tower). Heureux dans l’espoir de vous revoir bientôt
Votre
I. Str
[P.-S.] Le Scherzo et Final de ma Symphonie est tant aussi difficile de procurer que la reste de la
partition—ce n’est pas gravé—c’est très mal protesté, comme vous le savez.
