Sergei Prokofiev in Saint Petersburg Conservatory - 12 December, 1913, in the morning

from Sergey Prokofiev diaries: 12 December 1913, page 567:

Tcherepnin, pleading illness, did not attend the rehearsal at all. We were in the Great Hall, and I was mortally afflicted with boredom while Tsybin plodded through Rigoletto despite the efforts of Bushen and her enemy Damskaya alternately to engage my attention.
