Tout cela bien mystérieux, et si clair une fois l’œuvre réalisée. Vous êtes constamment dans ma pensée, que ne donnerais-je pour vous voir. Serez à Berlin en septembre si je pouvais y venir. J’ai de plus en plus l’impression qu’il faut saisir les moments qui s’offrent, à tout prix. Je ne sais pas vous écrire, vous êtes trop grand pour moi et je vous aime trop, mais vous entendrez tout ce qui va vers vous des meilleur [sic] de mon cœur. Je vous embrasse, Cher Igor Nadia � Author: Nadia Boulanger Igor Location: California Nadia Location: 36 rue Ballu Recipient: Igor Stravinsky
