"My sincere and great friend, I don't know if I could fully grasp your soul with this Rudepoême, but I swear with all my heart that I have the impression of having your temperament, as I feel it, engraved mechanically, as if by an intimate snapshot, into the staves. So if this is successful, you will always be the true author of this work. Your Villa-Lobos"
