Boulanger accepted the position and began what would prove to be a warm and lasting dialogue with the Stravinsky family. For fifty years, Boulanger exchanged letters with Igor Stavinsky. An additional 140 letters exist written to Boulanger from Stravinsky's immediate family: his wife Catherine, his mother Anna, and his sons Théodore and Soulima. Nadia Boulanger and the Stravinskys: A Selected Correspondence makes avialable a rich selection from this many-sided dialogue. The letters are published here in English translation (most for the first time in their entirety or at all). The little-known French originals are available on the book's companion website. The letters allow us to follow the conversation shared between Boulanger and the Stravinskys from 1929 until 1972, the year following Igor Stavinsky's death. Through the words they exchanged, we see Boulanger and Stravinsky transition from respectful colleagues to close friends to, finally, distant icons, with music serving always a central topic. These letters are a testament to one master teacher's power to shape the culture canon and one composer's desire to embed himself within historical narratives. Their worlds touch upon matters professional and personal, musical and social, with the overall narrative reflecting the turmoil of life during the twentieth century and the fragility of artists hoping to leave their mark on the modernist period--back cover. 600 10 Boulanger, Nadia|vCorrespondence. 600 10 Stravinsky, Igor,|d1882-1971|vCorrespondence. 600 14 Boulanger, Nadia. 600 14 Stravinsky, Igor,|d1882-1971. 600 17 Boulanger, Nadia.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00081395 600 17 Stravinsky, Igor,|d1882-1971.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00038169 650 0 Conductors (Music)|vCorrespondence. 650 4 Conductors (Music)|0(OCoLC)fst00874600 650 7 Conductors (Music)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00874600 655 7 Records and correspondence.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423917 700 1 Stravinsky, Igor,|d1882-1971,|eauthor. 700 1 Francis, Kimberly A.,|d1979-|eeditor. 830 0 Eastman studies in music ;|vv. 143. 856 42 |zCompanion website with letters presented in French and English|uhttps://digex.lib.uoguelph.ca/exhibits/show/ boulangerandstravinskys 856 42 |zCompanion website with letters presented in French and English|uhttps://digex.lib.uoguelph.ca/exhibits/show/ boulangerandstravinskys 948 |d20180926|clti|tlti-aex 994 C0|bWCH
