Notes and References
- ↑ Dated to 1877 by Pyotr Jurgenson. The editors of П. И. Чайковский. Полное собрание сочинений, том VI (1961) suggest that the "enclosed letter" referred to was Letter 584 to Nadezhda von Meck, which would have been written earlier on the same day, based in a comment on Letter 592 to Nadezhda von Meck, 28 July/9 August 1877.
