У первых скрипок есть две ошибки, повторенные в обоих имеющихся у меня экземплярах и значит во всех остальных.

1) второй и третий такты стр[анице] 54 партитуры пропущены вовсе. Они суть повторение двух предыдущих тактов и потому здесь стоит только поставить те знаки повторения, о которых ты так красноречиво написал в руководстве ''Рихтера''.

2) На последней странице квинты у всех струнных играются унисоном, а он поставил ''divisi'' для двух.

Нельзя ли, голубчик, эти две ошибки завтра утром до репетиции исправить.

You have two mistakes in the first violins, duplicated in both the copies I have, which means they're in all the rest.

1) the second and third bars of page 54 have been omitted altogether. They consist of a repetition of the two previous bars and therefore here it's only worth inserting repeat marks, about which you wrote so eloquently in your ''Richter'' manual <ref name="note1"/>.

2) On the last page I have all the strings playing unison fifths, although it has ''divisi'' for two of them.

Is it possible, golubchik, for these two mistakes to be corrected before tomorrow morning's rehearsal?<ref name="note2"/>
