Content and physical description
ContentHe sends a signed copy of the contract for the piano pieces, and promises to write a whole notebook of them, they will be really simple, just as the addressee requires. He has talked to Mr. Walter Straram, who would like to perform theCONCERTO FOR VLC AND ORCH. NO. 1, yet he does not want to engage Mr. Gaspar Cassadó; he does not know whether it is a matter of money or rivalry between French cellists. If the addressee insists upon GC, he could offer to WS the CONCERTO FOR STRING QUARTET AND ORCH., with the explanation that the cello concerto has been earmarked for GC. Mr. Ansermet performed the SERENADE in Geneva, the reviews were very kind. He asks for Mr. EA´s address so that he can extend his thanks to him.
