In the evening I went to see Kolya Myaskovsky in his new apartment on Vasilievsky Island, two very splendid rooms. We [S.P. and Nikolay Myaskovsky] played through Red Mask and found it terribly thin on material. I wanted him to write a review of Schindler's compositions for Muzyka, but while acknowledging their literacy, he did not find anything of much significance in them so if he did write anything, it would not be complimentary. We played part of his Third Symphony from the piano score he is in the process of completing; it promises to be very good indeed. I drew attention to several things in the First Symphony that I thought would benefit from revising, but he firmly rejected all of them. |
