Content and physical description
ContentBM would welcome it if SN wrote perhaps less long letters, but more often. Some of the information is out of date. The money helped him. The quartet is to be left to the Shevchiks, he is making a new string quartet which he wants to give to the Zichs [Zico Quartet = Prague Quartet]. A concert with them (in Paris) is realistic. SN is to send him all the reviews and articles about it (and pictures from Brno). They haven't written to him from Brno yet and the premiere is already over. He asks about the Trio, he would change something there. There have been several articles about Half-time. Talich had great success. He writes about his health, he is weak physically and mentally. He's trying to get Halftime in there too. He'd like to stay there. They are to make a change in Nonett's clarinet (he lists it), SN is to write to him about it. He would change everything now! He has written several articles, would like to address the Views and write there as well. He is surprised by the "Mice" design. After this quartet, he wants to write something for the SN trio. He's going to come to the Festival. He describes an interview with Heřman about Axman. The scores of the things that were played are to be put in order by SN. SN is not supposed to send him any of his own money. He studied again with Mrs. Osuska songs. He says hello to his friends. He writes his address. Wonders if they'll print the Istar elevator.
