I am so shaken up. I spent Sunday afternoon with your Father— surprising strength, enthusiasm and tenderness. The worry he creates for himself, for Denise, for you, for Kitty. Perhaps he seems to remain silent, but he lives with those who are his life and every detail remains engraved—all hidden in a seemingly contradictory appearance, but nevertheless rooted within. His impressions, his trip, this return to his childhood, his sense of modesty, his way of saying nothing but what he wants to, and how the words must veil or divulge. It is true, he walks with difficulty, it’s the only time where one can see the signs of the shocks he has undergone. His spirit is young, alive, innovative, mobile, and what clairvoyance, what conviction as well, which sometimes creates incontrollable, spontaneous reactions. Unfortunately, I must hurry, I can spare anything but time, but I am with you, sharing in your hopes, your expectations, knowing the weight of your intense patience. Give Denise my love and know, both of you, that my thoughts never leave you. Thank you again. Yours, NB � * * * Boulanger à Théodore Strawinsky [sans date] [1962] Cher Théodore, Pardon de ne pas vous avoir écrit encore. Suis si bousculée. Passé l’après-midi de dimanche avec votre Père, étonnant de force, d’enthousiasme et de tendresse. Le souci qu’il se fait pour Denise, pour vous, pour Kitty. Peut-être semble-t-il rester silencieux mais il vit avec ceux qui sont sa vie et chaque détail resté gravé. Tout cela caché, en apparence contradictoire, et pourtant si enraciné. Ses impressions, son voyage, ce retour à son enfance, sa pudeur, son art de ne dire que ce qu’il veut, et comment les termes doivent voiler ou découvrir. Il est vrai, il marche mal, c’est le seul moment où l’on voit des signes de chocs qu’il a subis, l’esprit est jeune, vif, novateur, en mouvement, et quelle clairvoyance, quelle conviction aussi qui crée parfois des réactions d’une spontanéité incontrôlables. Hélas il faut aller vite, je ne dispose de rien comme temps mais suis avec vous partageant vos espoirs, votre attente, sachant le poids de cette patience si longue ! Embrassez Denise et sachez tous deux que ma pensée ne vous quitte pas. Merci encore.

I do hope that you are suffering less. But it has been so long—it’s a burden to be so patient. I saw your father-in-law upon his return from Moscow, walking with a bit of difficulty, but with an extraordinary presence—so preoccupied by you, by you all. The recording of the Flood is impressive and allows for an understanding of the grandeur of the work. Regarding A Sermon, Narration, Prayer [sic], which I heard on the radio, it is profoundly moving. And if mastering these ever-new means is stupefying, the emotion that emanates from this sublime work is inexpressible. What a supreme force of thought and feeling —which [others] want to ignore! Hug one another [for me] and know I am your, Nadia B. P.S. Not yet been able to write to Kitty. Going to do it one of these days I hope! � * * * Boulanger à Denise Stravinsky 18 février 1962 Chère Denise, Sans nouvelles depuis longtemps, je me sens pourtant proche et ma pensée ne vous quitte pas.

Vu votre beau-père à son retour de Moscou, marchant avec un peu de difficulté, mais d’une présence extraordinaire—si préoccupé de vous de vous tous. Le disque du Flood est impressionnant et permet de comprendre la grandeur de l’œuvre. Quant à celui de Sermon, Narration Prayer[sic], entendu à la radio, il est profondément émouvant. Et si la maîtrise de moyens toujours nouveaux est stupéfiante, l’émotion qui se dégage de cette œuvre sublime, elle est indicible.

Il me semble que je vois, et lis, et comprends—Triste de ne pouvoir le communiquer—et au surplus parfaitement inutile. Vous embrasse, et suis du meilleur de mon cœur, Votre Nadia B [P.-S.] Ma tendresse à Vera et tant d’amitiés à Bob—qu’il est donc intelligent ! Une joie constante. Et la force de tout ce que vous taisez, qui sourd—pousse tout. � 1960 Author: Nadia Boulanger Gargenville Memories and Commentaries Nadia Location: Fontainebleau Recipient: Igor Stravinsky Robert Craft Vera Stravinsky https://digex.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/f0ca0230d272f24cfae0249c8635719b.pdf 786d2f47fad0ec613a252a91e5d08676 https://digex.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/cf0483adf90abb593a5095613c8ad5cf.pdf c8cabb86e1cc476de31ca8a34d670f71 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Thank you for these lines, thank you for your thoughts, and above all thank you for your faithful friendship: it is so precious to us. A present where the past ceases to remain alive would seem suspicious to me, not to mention a lie. And I am certain that the past is not dead for my father, but he shrouds in self-imposed silence—in addition to a certain innate sense of “modesty”— the whole array of exterior circumstances we know of. We found him quite disabled because of his leg, which he can no longer rehabilitate—which humiliates him a lot and distresses us. He conducted Orpheus and Monumentum Gesualdo without excessive fatigue. These are not exactly the types of works to be appreciated by the public of Venice . . . Your presence (which we had hoped for) and the reassurance of your friendship were very much missed! When will you see us, dear Nadia? Kitty joins Denise and myself in sending you our love, and we want to tell you of our great devotion and our affection, Théodore � * * * Théodore Strawinsky à Boulanger Genève 3 octobre 1960 Chère Nadia, Nous venons, Denise et moi, de rentrer de Venise et je trouve votre lettre. Merci pour ces lignes, merci de vos pensées, merci surtout de votre amitié fidèle : elle nous est si précieuse. Un présent où le passé ne resterait pas vivant me paraitrait suspect pour ne pas dire mensonger. Et je suis certain que le passé n’est pas mort pour mon père, mais il l’ensevelit dans un silence s’imposer [sic]—plus qu’une certain « pudeur », native chez lui—tout le faisceau de circonstances extérieur que nous savons. Nous l’avons trouvé bien handicapé à cause de sa jambe et de cela il ne peut plus le remettre—ce qui l’humilie beaucoup et nous bouleverse. Il a dirigé sans excessive fatigue Orphée, et Monumentum Gesualdo. Ce ne sont pas là précisément des œuvres faites pour être appréciés par le public de Venise…Votre présence (que nous espérions) et le réconfort de votre amitié nous y ont tellement manqué ! Quand vous verrons-nous, chère Nadia ? Kitty se joint à Denise et à moi pour vous embrasser et vous dire notre grand dévouement et notre affection. Théodore. � 1960 Author: Théodore Stravinsky Denise Stravinsky Denise Strawinsky Kitty Stravinsky Monumentum pro Gesualdo Orpheus Recipient: Nadia Boulanger Théodore Stravinsky Theodore Strawinsky Théodore Strawinsky Location: Genève
