24 сент[ября 18]93 Маничка! Извольте сами похлопотать о пианистах для «Kармозины». Я думаю, Лавров и Блуменфельд не откажутся. У Вас должны находиться ботинки (штиблеты), оставленные мной при отъезде за границу. Скажите Аннушке, чтобы сохранила их до моего приезда. Ващ, П. Чайковский |
24 September 1893 Manichka! Please see about the pianists about Carmosine. Lavrov and Blumenfeld will not refuse, I think [1]. You ought to have found the shoes (boots) that I left behind when I went abroad. Ask Anushka to look after them until I arrive. Yours, P. Tchaikovsky |
Notes and References
- ↑ Herman Laroche's overture Carmosine (Кармозина) included parts for two pianists, which Tchaikovsky hoped would be performed by Nikolay Lavrov and Feliks Blumenfeld.
