Scope and content
Nina writes to Anna from Troldhaugen. Nina thanks the Brodskys for their letters and expresses her delight that the photographs have turned out so well. Nina's sister Antonie, known as Tony which Nina spells "Tonny", has come out well as have Edvard and Brodsky as they say "Skol". Nina mentions the Brodskys' good impression of Halvorsen who is as he has always been: a genuine musician, even if he does not like Schumann. Sinding cannot stand Mozart but poor Sinding is not happy. Brodsky should not lose too much weight suddenly as that is dangerous. The Griegs intend to go by the same route as the Brodskys to Kristiania on 22 September. The letter is dated 12 Sep 1906.
