From the Dust Jacket: "In this second volume of Igor Stravinsky's correspondence -- selected and annotated by his friend and associate Robert Craft -- we are given a wealth of material relating to the composer's association with the dance, to this relationships with other composers and musicians, and to the daily, financial, and familial concerns of his life. Of unique value -- for its insight into his extraordinary influence on, and involvement in, the dance -- is his correspondence with Serge de Diaghilev, with Vaslav Nijinsky, with Leon Bakst, and with Emile Jacques-Dalcrose. Of great musical interest are the letters to and from Pierre Monteux. and the correspondence with the composers Manuel de Falla, Florent Schmitt, Lord Berners, and Alfredo Casella, and with the critics M.
