Пётр Иванович!
Потрудись распорядиться о посылке в Лондон копии с партитуры концерта к Гартвигсон. Адрес его на заголовке прилагаемого письма. Но не лучше ли послать твоему агенту для передачи Гартвигсону? За пересылку я заплачу. П. Чайковский |
Kindly arrange for a copy of the full score of the concerto to be sent to Hartvigson in London. His address is at the head of the enclosed letter. But would it better to have your agent forward it Hartvigson? I shall pay for the shipment [1]. P. Tchaikovsky |
