Я, а не Вы, виноват в том, что нам не пришлось свидеться в день моего выезда; ибо я должен был предупредить Вас, что поезд отправляется часом раньше. А мне очень нужно было с Вами повидаться. Я хотел у Вас попросить позволения в концерте (14 янв[аря], общедоступном) вместо предположенных двух новинок сыграть «&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Poème lyrique&amp;#039;&amp;#039;». Программа так складывается, что мне это будет легче и приятнее. Я хочу, как это было в Москве, сыграть Вашу чудную вещицу и скерцо Лядова.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Простите, что я напрасно заставил Вас потратить время на выставление смычковых знаков в «&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Новинках&amp;#039;&amp;#039;». Впрочем, обо всем этом я ещё поговорю с Вами вскоре устно, ибо перед &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Новым годом&amp;#039;&amp;#039; снова буду в П[етер]бурге. Принимаю живейшее участие в постигшем Вас семейном горе.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Обнимаю Вас, голубчик. До свиданья.&lt;br /&gt;

{{centre|Dear [[Aleksandr Glazunov|Aleksandr Konstantinovich]]!}}&lt;br /&gt;
I, rather than you, are to blame for the fact that we were unable to see each other on the day of my departure, because I ought to have warned you that the train was leaving an hour earlier &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. And I very much needed to see you. I wanted to ask your permission to play «&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Poème lyrique&amp;#039;&amp;#039;» in the popular concert (14 January), instead of the two novelties &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;. The programme has developed in such a way that this will be easier and more pleasant for me. I want to play your wonderful things and [[Lyadov]]&amp;#039;s scherzo, just as in [[Moscow]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Forgive me for unnecessarily forcing you to spend time inserting bowing marks in the &amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Novelties&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;. Anyway, I&amp;#039;ll speak to you about all this in person soon, because before the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;New Year&amp;#039;&amp;#039; I&amp;#039;ll be in [[Petersburg]] again. I am sharing most vividly in the family grief that has befallen you &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note3&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hug you, golubchik. Until we meet.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Tchaikovsky was replying to an undated letter from [[Glazunov]].&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Ultimately [[Aleksandr Ziloti]], rather than Tchaikovsky, conducted the eighth popular concert of the Russian Musical Society in [[Saint Petersburg]] on 14/26 January 1890, which included [[Glazunov]]&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Poème lyrique&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, Op. 12, and [[Anatoly Lyadov]]&amp;#039;s Scherzo in D major, Op. 16.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;note3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[Glazunov]]&amp;#039;s grandfather, Ivan Ilyich Glazunov, died on 19/31 December 1889.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
