Sergei Prokofiev - 4 April, 1913, in the afternoon

from Sergey Prokofiev diaries: 4 April 1913, page 360:

At one o'clock went to the Conservatoire, but Anna Nikolayevna [Yesipova] was teaching at home today. At the lesson I was preceded by two girls who played so badly that my sonata seemed good by comparison.
