Милый Сергей Иванович! Вероятно, 4-го или 5-го числа я приеду в Петербург. Напишите мне, пожалуйста, туда, в какие дни будут происходить репетиции концерта и когда Вы желаете, чтобы я приехал, — к самой первой репетиции или ко второй? Так как у меня в Петербурге дело есть, то мне важно знать, сколько дней я могу там остаться? Я ''страх'' боюсь, что Ваша симфония уже игралась. Об этом тоже напишите мне.

До свиданья!

<ref name="note2">In fact, [[Taneyev]]'s Symphony No. 3 in D minor would not be performed until the following year: at a Russian Musical Society concert in [[Moscow]] on 26 January/7 February 1885, conducted by [[Taneyev]] himself.</ref>
