Rehearsal memo:

Several weeks ago, we sent you a list of translations of the German
markings in the Mahler Symphony. We now realize that this list
contained many serious errors. The following contains the correct
versions. So we don't waste valuable rehearsal time on this, copy
these corrections into your part immediately.
