Replies to Questions on Trance [1]

Were Trance and the Bird of Fire each composed at a single sitting and can the date be given?

The Bird of Fire was written on two consecutive days – and afterwards revised. The Trance at one sitting – it took only a few minutes. You may perhaps have the date as they were both completed on the same day and sent to you the next.
