TLS in French, one page, 8.25 x 10.5, personal letterhead, January 16, 1924. Letter to lifelong friend and collaborator Lucien Garban, who arranged and transcribed many of Ravel’s works. In part (translated): "And now, here are some more translations. I pester you, don't I? If none of them is urgent, as it seems, you can bring them to the Rolands where I shall be inviting the Delages also for next Monday. That will be the only way I can see you all, because my day will be a very busy one. When I went to dine at the rue de Bourgogne last Monday, I was hoping vaguely that it was at-home day and that I would find you there. Don't fail to be present at next Monday's gathering especially! For the moment, I am abandoning the Sonata as a result of a severe depression. I am working on an 'Epitaph' which is more in keeping with my mood.” In fine condition, with several intersecting folds.
