Content and physical description
ContentBedřich Janáček describes to Charlotte Martinů how Bohuslav Martinů promised him to write a piece for organ. He sent him the almost finished VIGILIA for proofreading, on which BJ wrote him notes, but then he never received any more letters from BM. So he asks ChM to send him a copy of the piece, and possibly other drafts of pieces for organ. Indeed, he would like to see the work performed and published. BJ will not undertake anything (publishing or completing the work) without ChM's permission. As for the organ part of THE MOUNTAIN OF THREE LIGHTS, he will be happy to participate in proofreading for publication if the work has not yet been published.
