Dubois” to Maurice Emmanuel (1862–1938), French composer and musicologist. Paris, June 1, 1912. 1 page, in-12 format, on letterhead bearing his address, 201 Boulevard Pereire. A warm letter of thanks in which Théodore Dubois expresses his friendship for his former student Maurice Emmanuel and inquires after his children. “Thank you, dear friend, for your kind note. Our hearts go out to you and your dear little ones, and we would very much like to hear from them? ” This correspondence attests to the friendly relationship between the two composers, which extended beyond their professional ties. Maurice Emmanuel, a former student of Théodore Dubois at the Paris Conservatory, distinguished himself in particular through his research on ancient modes and folk music.
