Scope and content
Anna Brodsky writes anxiously to Nina Grieg and hopes that the native air has helped Nina Grieg to recover from her influenza. She must not have too many guests. The Brodskys are greatly looking forward to having Nina and her sister, Tonny, with them in October and they will do everything possible to make them very comfortable at their house. Anna thanks Nina for sending the card and lovely photo of Grieg which Anna sent on to Odessa, but Olga was away visiting her other sister. The previous day Adolph played the two sonatas by Grieg so beautifully that Anna could not hold back her tears. The original is dated 12 Jun [1909 or 1912], and it is unclear when this photocopy was made.
