Cosima's Diaries

Diary Entry of March 13, 1876

Overview

The first orchestra rehearsal gave me a very good impression. Afterward R. and I drove to Charlottenburg, where the sight of Queen Luise suggested dignity in suffering, while he could complete only a single page of the score before Wilhelm Scholz arrived later.

Monday, March 13:

First orchestra rehearsal, which I attend. Fine impression.

Afterward, a drive with R. to Charlottenburg; looked at Queen Luise, grace in suffering.

R. is able to write only one page of his score today; in the evening, Wilhelm Scholz.
