Floriz,

Floriz, Unfortunately I can't see you before tomorrow. Will tell you why when I see you! Tomorrow at 5 p.m. or in the evening!

Dr. Robert H. has just been pumping me ‒ about the form of the Adagio in the Ninth Symphony. Because he has to write a new analysis for the Philharmonic. Ugh! I am going to [illegible word].


Until I see you. Your
