Francis Poulenc in Salzburg - at the end of 1922

from Selected correspondence 1915-1963 / Francis Poulenc, page 57:

The French have had a huge success there. Your Sonata in particular, admirably played by Fleury, deeply impressed musicians there, somewhat overwhelmed by so much music in so short a time and with such limited resources.
