Scope and content
Nina writes that Edvard has terrible influenza but fortunately Nina had it first and is able to look after him. They plan to travel in March. Nina believes that Kristiania is an absolutely unhealthy town, lying low at the end of the fjord with many hills and mists. It has been a remarkable winter in Europe: bitterly cold in the south. Nina was absolutely delighted to hear the Brodsky Quartet play Edvard's quartet. Next week Joh. Wolff will play Sinding's concerto which Nina has never heard. In the middle of February, the Hallés come and at the beginning of March, Thibaud. Nina looks forward to seeing Wilma [Hallé] and hopes she is still the same. Dated 30 Jan 1907.
