Content and physical description

Content	They send him a contract for the RHYTHMIC ETUDES. Bohuslav Martinů should send a signed copy to Mr. Eugen Cools at Eschig. Subsequently, the fee will be paid. Courtaud Konzerte have asked about the duration of BM´s quartets [CONCERTO FOR STRING QUARTET AND ORCHESTRA]. BM should reply with the enclosed postcard. They would like to get the score [of the CONCERTO FOR STRING QUARTET AND ORCHESTRA] and they hope that he will make Pro Arte send it to them. The sender would like to meet BM and hopes that the concerto he is now preparing together with Samuel Dushkin [CONCERTO FOR VIOLIN AND ORCHESTRA NO. 1] will turn out to be a successful work.
