Richard Wagner to Mathilde Wesendonck

Undated · Zurich

Overview

Wagner tells Mathilde that the singer Frau Heim cannot perform before Tuesday, so the next evening's gathering, if there must be one, will be a simple piano evening.

Letter

My Lady!

Frau Heim cannot sing before Tuesday, — so for to-morrow (if show you must have) a simple piano-evening.

I shall see you soon!

Your R. W.
