Content and physical description
ContentBM thanks Balatka for his work on his Theatre Behind the Gate. He regrets not being in Brno for the premiere. He asks how the work comes across, how the vocal parts are written (if they had to make any changes, etc.), what his opinion and the opinion of the soloists is. He himself has some doubts, he originally imagined something else and was actually practicing the possibilities of vocal and acting expression. Hopefully he'll hear it on the radio at some point. He also writes about Prague - he spoke about it (AB) with Talich, but of course in Prague different circumstances decide. In his opinion he should not go to Prague now, it is probably not the right moment and he will not miss the place. He can count on BM's intercession and help.
