Scope and Content

This letter may have been written in 1924, the year when Anna Brodsky's sister, Olga managed to leave Russia to come to Bowdon. In this last page of a letter to Anna Brodsky, Nina writes that she often accompanies the lieder at Grieg evenings here in Kopenhagen. Now she co-operates with the court pianist, Miss Johanne Stockmarr, an excellent lieder singer, in accompaniment and piano duets. Nina reproaches Anna for not saying how she is. Nina thanks Anna for her book and realises how wonderful for Anna to have her sister. The autumn is unusually beautiful and the woods are gold and bronze.
