Wednesday, 3rd (3rd of February, 1875)

Worked with the children; then sent them onto the ice and, in the meantime, wrote letters (to father, who will not be coming to Vienna, etc.). Waiting in vain for Richter; in Vienna, there is confusion, as he has not attended to anything.

In the evening, a larger gathering took place. Mr. Glatz sings the duet with Brünnhilde with much energy, and Rubinstein brings us great joy with his playing.
