Autograph letter signed from Nina Grieg to Anna Brodsky

Nina has not written to Anna for a long time. She was glad to hear from Anna's last letter that the Brodskys are well and that Brodsky continues to be so active at the conservatorium. Nina finds that her hearing is as good as ever but her eyesight is worse: she can no longer read new music but she must be able to remember everything by heart. Glasses do not help. She supposes it will be almost summer with the Brodskys but spring has not yet reached them. On Monday they are going back to Kopenhagen and at the end of May, to Norway. Nina would like to go abroad but lacks the courage and does not want to die abroad. Nina remarks that the silent fish and his mother are still chez the Brodskys. Leon works in the garden and is very good and helpful to Anna. Nina sends greetings to Frau Picard and her son. In a postscript, Nina mentions that they have here a splendid violinist and a wonderful person, Emil Telmanyi. Dated 7 Apr 1928.
