Content and physical description
ContentHe is curious about the reviews of the concerto (premiered with Serkin, so probably the Piano Sonata - 4 December 1957). It will be published in print in Paris. Thanks for the birthday wishes and describes how he is physically. They will be celebrating the holiday at Sacher's, describes the menu. Frank is no longer to write to him about his dear, she writes herself. She is quiet, working on a piano concerto, begins the last sentence. The opera is dragging on again. He complains that especially in Germany Schoenberg and similar unlistenable music is popular. He writes about the political situation, which he has picked up from the newspapers. The German textbook hasn't arrived yet. They sent him records from Prague. This week he wants to put everything in order with the institutions.
