Letter
Adolph Brodsky
16th June 1889

Tchaikovsky is delighted that Brodsky will come to play in his concert on 28th October and sends the programme: Symphony in D major by Mozart; Brodsky to play the Tchaikovsky violin concerto or any other he likes; Passe-pied and Gavotte from Idomeneo - Mozart; Hamlet Fantasy-overture - Tchaikovsky; Brodsky to play incidental pieces with pianoforte; overture - Litolff. The quartet dates are now in October and if the first was on 27th October that would rather dim the glory of the concerto on the following day. Anna and Olga Lvovna must come to Moscow. Meanwhile Tchaikovsky is chained to his desk finishing his ballet for the beginning of the Petersburg season. Dated 16 Jun 1889.
