The discovery of a small collection of correspondence between Erik Chisholm and Serge Prokofiev came about quite by accident. The Serge Prokofiev Archive at Goldsmiths, University of London, holds a substantial collection of letters (in the region of 16,000 pages) written by and received by Prokofiev during the years he spent outside the Soviet Union (1918-1936). Filling some 45 folders, these pages shed fascinating light not only on the daily life and work of Prokofiev, but on his many and illustrious correspondents, including Stravinsky, Miaskovsky and Diaghilev.
