| Серёжа! Хотел и вчера и сегодня к Вам заехать, — и, решительно не нашел времени. Будьте так добры — приезжайте сегодня в 11 часов в Эрмитаж. Будут все наши, начиная с Руб[инштейна] и кончая мной.

Serezha! I wanted to call on you yesterday and today, but in the end I couldn't find the time. Would you be so good as to turn up at the Hermitage at 11 o'clock? We'll all be there, starting with Rubinstein and ending with me.
Yours, P. Tchaikovsky |
