|Original text={{right|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Тифлис&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;13 апр[еля] 1889 г[ода]}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{centre|Милый друг!}}&lt;br /&gt;
Вчера вечером приехал в Тифлис после непрерывного 2-х недельного странствования.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Пачпорт вышлю тебе как только получу; у меня его отобрали в Батуме и обещали через день выслать. Ключ тоже пришлю вместе с пачпортом.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Я приеду, как писал тебе уже раньше, в Москву около 8-го мая. Впрочем, своевременно буду телеграфировать, дабы ты созвал присутствующих директоров для заседания. После того уеду на неделю в деревню, а потом опять приеду на последние экзамены. Таковы мои планы. Если буду жив и здоров, то с свойственной мне пунктуальностью все так и выполню.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
На Алексеева, эрдмансдёрферских поклонников и всякую Шушеру, лаящую на Нас, плевать, —  а сезон у нас будет всё-таки такой блестящий, что все рты разинут. За это я тебе ручаюсь.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
О том, что &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Бессель&amp;#039;&amp;#039; предлагал комитету выставки своё посредничество и участие, мне говорил в Париже &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Маккар&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Про роль его как &amp;#039;&amp;#039;эксперта&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ничего не знаю.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Не знаю, про какие ноты лондонские ты меня спрашиваешь? Я играл там 1-ю сюиту по голосам, привезённым с собой из библиотеки Муз[ыкального] общ[ества]), и сколько мне кажется, своих нот у них там не было.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ты скоро получишь ещё 2 сундука из Парижа. Если из Батума пачпорт мне не сейчас вышлют, то, быть может, оставлю все это до возвращения в Москву, т. е. одним уж разом возьмём все сундуки.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Засим до свиданья!&lt;br /&gt;
{{right|П. Чайковский}}&lt;br /&gt;
В море был 11 дней. Качало по временам очень сильно.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|Translated text={{right|&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Tiflis]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;13 April 1889}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{centre|Dear friend!}}&lt;br /&gt;
Last night I arrived in [[Tiflis]] after 2 weeks of uninterrupted travelling.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&amp;#039;ll send you my passport as soon as I receive it. They took it from me in [[Batum]] and promised to send it on the next day. I&amp;#039;ll send the key as well together with the passport.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As I wrote to you earlier, I will come to [[Moscow]] around the 8th of May. However, I&amp;#039;ll telegraph in good time so that you can summon the directors to attend the meeting. After that I&amp;#039;ll go to the country for a week, and then come back again for the final examinations. Such is my plan. If I&amp;#039;m fit and well then I&amp;#039;ll accomplish all this with my usual punctuality.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alekseyev &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;, [[Erdmannsdörfer]]&amp;#039;s accolites, and all sorts of rabble will be barking and spitting at us — and yet the season will be so brilliant that their mouths will be wide open &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. This I guarantee you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I heard from &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Mackar]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in [[Paris]] that &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Bessel]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; had offered his mediation and participation to the exhibition committee &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. I know nothing about his role as an &amp;#039;&amp;#039;expert&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&amp;#039;t know which [[London]] scores you&amp;#039;re asking me about? I played the [[Suite No. 1|1st suite]] there using parts brought from the Musical Society library, and it seemed to me that they had very few scores there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You will soon be receiving 2 further trunks from [[Paris]]. If I don&amp;#039;t receive my passport from [[Batum]] presently, then perhaps I&amp;#039;ll leave everything until I return to [[Moscow]], i.e. we&amp;#039;ll collect all the trunks at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And so until we meet!&lt;br /&gt;

I was at sea for 11 days. At times it was extremely choppy.&lt;br /&gt;

==Notes and References==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;references&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Nikolay Aleksandrovich Alekseyev (1852-1893), the [[Moscow]] city mayor was also one of the directors of the Russian Musical Society.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Tchaikovsky had assembled a star-studded programme of foreign musicians to open the next season of the Russian Musical Society concert, which he would announce at the forthcoming directors&amp;#039; meeting.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;A reference to the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exposition Universelle&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to be held in [[Paris]] later that year, at which Tchaikovsky had already declined the opportunity to become one of the Russian delegates.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
