Scope and Content

Nina Grieg writes most appreciatively of the Brodskys' friendship and her deep gratitude that "lieber Brodsky" came to Edvard's funeral. She is pleased that the concert will take place: Brodsky will play the quartet and the sonata. Nina does not want to go herself but asks the Brodskys to tell her all about it afterwards. Her sisters-in-law have made plans for her: the three of them will go to Kristiania on Monday and Nina will go to a friend, Frau Badil Neergard, in Denmark. While Nina is there, the sisters-in-law will come to Kopenhagen to look for a furnished flat for all four to spend the winter. Tonny will join them later when she has closed the old home. Nina's old mother died the day after Edvard's funeral. Nina mentions how well Brodsky wrote of the funeral. Nina is still receiving many letters each day. Dated 21 Sep 1907.
