{{centre|Дорогая Варвара Михайловна!}}
Ваше длинное, страшно интересное, милейшее письмо получил и прочёл с невыразимым удовольствием. Одно только мне не нравится. Неужели в самом деле Вы не хотите больше петь на сцене? Послушайте: согласитесь в будущем ''весеннем сезоне гастролировать'' в Москве или Петербурге. Дайте мне разрешение хлопотать и устроить Вам это дело! По-моему, это ''просто необходимо'' сделать. Я ручаюсь Вам за успех! Ей-Богу, грешно в цвете лет зарывать свой талант в землю! Как бы мне хотелось устно поговорить с Вами об этом! Авось, Бог даст, моя поездка в Тифлис устроится, я Вас увижу и приеду к Вам с официальным предложением дирекции. Мне нужно только, чтобы Вы письменно изъявили согласие на хлопоты по устройству ангажемента.


Я побывал в Москве, видел превосходную выставку к встретился в первопрестольной с г[осподином] ревельским вице-губернатором, Мне жаль его, и я очень печалюсь за него и за бедную Парашу. Обоим им тяжело будет привыкать после Тифлиса к чухонскому Ревелю. Но нужно правду сказать, что во всем Анатолий сам виноват. Это добрейший и милейший человек, но с очень раздражительным и беспокойным характером. Не следовало ему из-за Смиттена уходить из судебного ведомства.
The new edition is based on the results of both Russian and international Tchaikovsky scholarship of the late 19th and 20th centuries; it takes into account also contemporary knowledge and ideas formed by the beginning of the 21st century, especially in the field of musical sources and textural studies. The edition is primarily intended for performers, teachers and students, as well as for Tchaikovsky scholars. Its aim is to present the composer's enormous legacy (both musical and literary) as it is known today, as exhaustively as possible.


Работа моя понемногу подвигается. Живу тихо, спокойно, хорошо. Если ничего особенного не произойдёт, надеюсь к осени кончить балет и оперу и зимой заняться инструментовкой.  
The project's task is to reproduce the texts of Tchaikovsky's works (both musical and literary) with maximum accuracy and authenticity on the basis of the principal sources reflecting the composer's ideas in every detail. It will include unfinished works, whose sketches and drafts are extant, and in some cases posthumous reconstructions of works by others <ref name="note1"/>.


Я забыл в письме к Мише ответить на вопрос его о размере гонорара с Гутхейля. ''Чем больше, тем лучше''. Церемониться с ним нечего: он очень богат.

Целую Ваши ручки. Обнимаю Мишу. Целую Тату. Мамаше и милой Анне Михайловне усердно кланяюсь.

Revision as of 21:51, 18 March 2023

The project of the Academic Edition of Tchaikovsky's Complete Works (Академическое полное собрание сочинений) was launched in 2013 by the State Institute of Arts Studies and the P. I. Tchaikovsky State House-Museum, as part of a programme devoted to the composer's 175th anniversary.

The new edition is based on the results of both Russian and international Tchaikovsky scholarship of the late 19th and 20th centuries; it takes into account also contemporary knowledge and ideas formed by the beginning of the 21st century, especially in the field of musical sources and textural studies. The edition is primarily intended for performers, teachers and students, as well as for Tchaikovsky scholars. Its aim is to present the composer's enormous legacy (both musical and literary) as it is known today, as exhaustively as possible.

The project's task is to reproduce the texts of Tchaikovsky's works (both musical and literary) with maximum accuracy and authenticity on the basis of the principal sources reflecting the composer's ideas in every detail. It will include unfinished works, whose sketches and drafts are extant, and in some cases posthumous reconstructions of works by others [1].

The publishers are Music Production International (MPI) in Chelyabinsk, Russia, and (from 2018) Schott in Mainz, Germany [2].
