Content and physical description

Content	He has sent the recipient the score of the SERENADE, a great success in Paris. Albert Roussel has written a letter to Sergej A. Koussevitzky recommending that it be played in Boston. He calls the addressee’s attention to an article about himself. He has two new ballets, ON TOURNE and ECHEC AU ROI which have been approved for the forthcoming season to be premiered in Copenhagen; negotiations with Mr. Pohl’s theatre agency are under way, and he hopes to ensure that the evening performance is made up of five of his ballets. He requests information about the Serenade. He asks that the matters concerning the contract be cleared up.
