Title	[Letter from Pablo Casals to Susan Metcalfe, Munich]
Date	1914-03-03
Creator	Casals, Pablo, 1876-1973
Subject headings	Casals, Pablo, 1876-1973
Place	Munich
Description	Casals is feeling better, in spite of a backache. He doesn't like the cold winter weather. He will arrive in Paris the next day at noon. He will visit many old friends there, including the Countess de Morphy, Faure, Cortot, Thibaud and Salmon. Horszowski and others will come to see him and help him prepare for his trip to London on the 6. "I mention all these names because it is among these people that I've spent my stays in Paris in recent years, and even without seeing them, I know that I have been in their thoughts, and they have played a role in my life in the sense that they have all always done well by me." Today he is playing with Moor. "I didn't tell you that I was rather disappointed by the concert in Vienna on the 28th with Dohnanyi. It's a shame. I'd been so interested in this concert and was so looking forward to it. Artistic joys are more and more rare for me - among the mediocrity, the disappointment, I often ask myself what I should do - should I continue to endure so much unpleasantness only for material reward or should I retire and preserve around us faith and respect for pure art." He is feeling better, but will see a doctor in London. "How much I would like to no longer think of these concerts, this travel, these horrible impresarios."
