Serge Koussevitzky et al. - 25 February, 20th Century

from Sergey Prokofiev diaries: 25 February 1913, page 327:

I then played him [Serge Koussevitzky] Dreams. His verdict was that it was a beautiful work that should certainly be published and would be performed (but not, as he made clear, by himself). However, being an earlier work than the Concerto it could not have the same importance.
