Y ou can hear the conversation in Russian, so here’s part of it translated by Transforming Art :





Yelizaveta Lavrovskaya: Disgusting. How dare you call me crafty?





Vasily Safonov: [Sings a scale incorrectly]





Pyotr Tchaikovsky: This trill could be better.





Lavrovskaya: [Sings]





Tchaikovsky: Block is good, but Edison is even better.





Lavrovskaya: [Singing] A-o, a-o.





Safonov: Peter Jurgenson in Moscow.





Tchaikovsky: Who just spoke? It seems like Safonov. [Whistles]
