Content and physical description
ContentAlfred Schlee thanks you for your letter, Bohuslav Martinů is absolutely right. Everybody needs a vacation. Unfortunately, modern times have invented summer festivals, so the sensations never end. Nevertheless, it's coming back to the mountains. And what is he doing? He'd like to meet him again. There's the question of money, he'll take care of it himself and hopes BM will have it next week. The work on the Concerto [CONCERTO DA CAMERA FOR HOUSEL AND MUSIC ORCH. WITH PIANO AND PERcussion INSTRUMENTS] is going well, and he will soon be sent the proofs. Have him leave them an address in case he leaves Nice.
