Summary Baermann writes that he has been much occupied by visitors. He answers a question posed by Jahns about how many performances of Der Freischutz have been given in Munich and tells of the regiment and theatre trumpet player Adam Metzkopp who has participated in every performance over 50 years. Baermann asks Jahns to communicate with the publisher Robert Lineau about a number of his works Lineau has asked to see, namely ‘clarinet compositions, my violoncello concerto and some songs’. He signs off saying that he is on his way to rehearse Das Rheingold.
