Sergei Prokofiev in Saint Petersburg Conservatory - 5 March, 20th Century, in the afternoon

from Sergey Prokofiev diaries: 5 March 1913, page 335:

Spent 60 kopecks on a taxi back to the Conservatoire to hear Barinova's class exam, Katya Borshch in particular. Kätchen has talent and temperament, but is very uneven: sometimes she is splendid, at other times she simply splashes about.
