Strawinsky 1260 North Wetherly Drive Hollywood California Nov. 28, 1942 Dear Friend, I’m ashamed by my long silence—it is not my fault, please believe me. Work is crazy, [I am] extremely stressed about whether a glimmer of hope has appeared. The terrible sacrifices, the endless suffering, demanding superhuman courage to have been submitted to the worst moral torture for two years, [torture that] grips the heart and no longer allows freedom of thought. I know, one must trust in God, and I bow my head without a whisper, but how can I not fearfully think about what awaits those whom we love. How I pity you—because the silence that walls them in leaves us only room to worry. You will tell me “it’s far too easy to worry,” but—we know well that our hearts tremble if they hope and withdraw to pray more fervently. Oh, how I miss Vera and you. Your presence is such a necessity for the heart and mind. But, unfortunately, California is far. Saint-Exupéry has been a great comfort. He is so strong, so good, but he leaves any day now to join Giraud, and now, having found peace for himself, he will finally have the opportunity to act. Excuse me for not having corrected the Sonata still. If you knew my life, you would understand. I will get to it, I promise you, after the 20th. Another thing, very pressing, the Lili Boulanger fund has a prize of $500 to distribute. The young Alexï [sic] Haïeff has written a very good symphony in the right direction. Will you trust me and vote for him? You will be doing him a great service, which he deserves for his talent, his work, his seriousness—and his solitude. He lives only to write, and to earn a living, gives lessons, and he is not one of those who knows how to overdo things. I would not allow myself to ask you this if I did not know for sure you would be in agreement if you saw the symphony. It is—almost morning, and I can no longer find my words. With fondness, I am wholeheartedly, Your Nadia B � Boulanger à Stravinsky 122 Bay State Road Boston, Massachusetts Kenmore 7277 Monsieur I. Strawinsky 1260 North Wetherly Drive Hollywood California 28 nov. 1942 Cher Ami, Ce long silence me fait honte—il n’est pas de ma faute—croyez-le bien—travail fou— tension extrême car si une lueur d’espoir est apparue, les affreux sacrifices, les souffrances sans fin, exigeant un courage surhumain d’être soumis depuis deux ans à la pire des tortures morales, serrent le cœur et ne laissent plus de liberté à la pensée. Je sais, il faut faire confiance à Dieu—et je m’incline sans murmurer—mais comment pourrais-je ne pas songer avec terreur à ce qui attend ceux que nous aimons. Que je vous plains—car ce silence qui les emmure maintenant ne laisse place pour nous qu’à l’inquiétude. Vous me direz : « trop facile vraiment de s’inquiéter, » mais—nous savons bien que notre cœur tremble, s’il espère et se replie pour prier avec plus de ferveur. Que vous me manquez Vera et vous. Votre présence est une telle nécessité du cœur et de l’esprit. Mais, hélas, la Californie est loin. Saint[-]Exupéry a été d’un grand secours—il est si solide—si bien—mais il part d’un jour à l’autre rejoindre Giraud, et maintenant a trouvé, lui, une tranquillité, puisqu’il va lui être donné d’agir enfin. Pardon de n’avoir pas corrigé encore la Sonate, si vous pourriez [sic] vous représenter ma vie, vous comprendriez. Je vais m’en occuper, je vous promets, après le 20. Autre chose—très pressé, le Lili Boulanger Fund a un prix de 500 dollars a [sic] distribuer. La jeune Alexï Haïeff a écrit une symphonie très bien dans la bonne direction. Voulez-vous me faire confiance [et] voter pour lui. Vous lui rendriez un grand service, mérité par son talent, son travail, son sérieux—et sa solitude. Il ne vit que pour écrire, et gagner sa vie, en donnant des leçons—et il n’est pas de ceux qui savent se pousser. Je ne me permettrais pas de vous demander cela si je ne me sentais pas sûre, que vous seriez d’accord si vous voyiez la symphonie.

The two letters of which you speak (the one from Nov. 15 from Washington and the one from Dec. 9 from Providence) never reached me. Whose fault, ours (wrong address) or the post office’s? God knows.

Pour une partition d’orch. de ma nouvelle composition Danses Concertantes (êtes-vous satisfé [sic] du titre?) attendez un peu : j’en ai besoin pour ici (projet de radio) et éventualité aussi de l’éditer chez l’Associated Music Publishers. La part est très soigneusement corrigée. L’exécution m’a donné beaucoup de joie * J’ai tellement envie de vous voir De tout cœur Votre I. Str. *j’ai eu 5 répétitions avec des excellents musiciens. � 1942 Author: Igor Stravinsky Danses Concertantes Igor Location: California Rafaël Salem Recipient: Nadia Boulanger https://digex.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/7cc62c9da2d0b04e14202eab06727997.pdf c89df67b0a25d1a64a89851f71496e9a https://digex.lib.uoguelph.ca/files/original/fef91baa32bfe17712c32186c37d8fbb.pdf e80e4d4d1fc1e9f0bbeed725f1758391 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It has to be said that it is a singular story that in the end appeared very simple to me, when everything was unanswered. So, there’s really nothing to understand. Be that as it may, to save time I will take the steps that seem the most favorable to me and will get the publication of the lectures started. Therein lies the question. Elimination of the summaries, corrections, proofs, they are all problems too minor to continue occupying your time. No doubt they will draw up a second set of proofs, but I won’t send them to you, either. Is there a way to have a score of your new work? Excuse these horrible scribbles, but I wrote all night and can no longer feel my hand, can no longer see. This is almost better [though]—because when one isn’t overwhelmed one is yet more anxious. How can I fight against this old, frustrating heart! Kiss Vera for me, and have her give you one, too, NB [P.S.] Would you be an angel and send me a small thank you note for my student Mme Raphaël Salem who has reviewed all the proofs and annotated them. It’s quite the project. � Boulanger à Stravinsky Gerry’s Landing Cambridge Mass Monsieur Igor Strawinsky 1260 North Wetherly Drive Hollywood, California 16 mars 1942 Cher Ami, Jamais nous ne nous convaincrons mutuellement donc…restons sur nos positions ! Il faut dire que c’est une singulière histoire, qui avait fini par me paraître très simple, quand tout restait sans réponse. Ainsi, c’est vraiment à n’y rien comprendre. Quoiqu’il en soit, pour gagner du temps, je prends donc les dispositions qui me paraissent les plus favorables et faire activer la parution des lectures. Là est toute la question. Suppression des résumés, corrections, épreuves, problèmes trop peu importants pour vous prendre encore du temps. Sans doute feront-ils tirer une 2de épreuve, mais je ne vous l’enverrai pas non plus. Y a-t-il moyen [sic] d’avoir une partition de votre nouvelle œuvre ? Pardon de cet affreux gribouillis, mais j’ai écrit toute la nuit, et ne sens plus ma main, ne vois plus rien. Cela vaut presque mieux—car quand on n’est pas abruti, on est encore plus anxieux. Quelle résistance à ce diable de cœur ! Embrassez Vera et qu’elle vous embrasse pour moi NB [P.-S.] Si vous étiez un ange vous m’enverriez un petit mot de remerciement pour mon élève Mme Raphaël Salem qui a revu toutes les épreuves et a tout [sic] annoté [sic]—c’est un vrai travail. � 1942 Author: Nadia Boulanger Dances Concertantes Igor Location: California Nadia Location: Cambridge Massachusetts Rafaël Salem Recipient: Igor Stravinsky Vera Stravinsky
