Content and physical description
ContentHe sends them his new composition – SEXTET – and asks them to send it back to him soon. He needs to have the score by 20th February. His film-opera [THREE WISHES OR INCONSTANCY OF THE LIFE] is half-done. He has sent the piano reduction of the first act to Berlin to translate it into German and hopes to be able to present the work to them soon. Could they inform him about the conditions of the definitive piano reduction of his opera? He knows that they have specialists for this purpose. He describes where his works were performed.
