Anna should have heard from Nina more often this autumn and winter but Nina has had boundless correspondence and each day Nina and Røntgen have to write about Edvard's posthumous works. Nina has sent the songs to Mr. Hinrichsen and in the last half of January Røntgen will come to Kopenhagen and will give a concert of what he has saved of Edvard's sketches i.e. what was ready: 2 quartet movements, 1 trio movement, 3 piano pieces and 11 songs. Nina knew of the lieder and had often sung them with Edvard; she also knew of the existence of the chamber music but had never heard it. It was always Nina's principle not to disturb Edvard's creativity with her questions. Nina expresses great appreciation of the friendship with the Brodskys and sends them Christmas and New Year greetings. Dated 12 Dec 1907.
