Content and physical description
ContentHe wanted to go to Rudy's concert, but he didn't. He played his concerto (third piano concerto?) in Luxembourg. He didn't write, so he has no news of him. He describes what he is working on (Mountain of Three Lights; Piano Sonata). No decision has come from Philadelphia, but he has another job. No news from home either. They gave him a concert in Brno, and he will be giving "Fantasia" (Symphony No. 6) as a Boston premiere at the anniversary celebration; he is very excited about it.
