Thursday, August 2:
I receive the lovely letter which R. wrote to me in Altenburg and in which he told me everything, including the news that the “tempo school” will now probably be set up; the mayor has no doubts that the town will provide funds for it.
Dinner with the theater director Baron Loen, his wife, and his son. R. afterward not quite well, as always when his routine is even only slightly disturbed. But he has arranged his studio for Parsifal, and today I heard a few of the first notes!
