Hochgeehrter Herr Doktor!

In Angelegenheit der “Chromatischen Phantasie” wären vor Drucklegung noch einige technische Kleinigkeiten zu besprechen. Es handelt sich nicht etwa um Aenderungen, doch möchte ich diese Geringfügigkeiten nicht aus eigenem erledigen, ohne mit Ihnen vorher Rücksprache genommen zu haben.

Es würde mich sehr freuen, wenn Sie, hochgeehrter Herr Doktor, nach meiner Rückkehr aus München, mich an einem der Vormittage der kommenden Woche (von Mittwoch, den 14/IX. an) mit Ihrem werten Besuche beehren wollten.

In vorzüglicher Hochachtung
ergebenst

Revered Doctor,

In the matter of the Chromatic Fantasy & Fugue, there are still some technical details to discuss before going to press. Not that these concern changes, but I should prefer not to settle these minutiae on my own, without having consulted you beforehand.

I would be delighted if you, revered Doctor, could do me the honor of kindly paying me a visit after my return from Munich, one morning in the coming week (from Wednesday September 14 onwards).

With kind regards,
Yours most truly,
p. [ stamp: ] Universal Edition & Co.
