General information

Content and physical description

Content	Otakar Šourek thanks for the kind memories and assures Martinů that he has not been forgotten and his personality is missed. He was unable to speak to Talich, but is convinced that BM's letter meant a lot to him. What Talich's enemies have done to him is a grave and humiliating injustice; he has not yet received public rehabilitation. OŠ is looking forward to BM's compositions, of whose success they can only read about so far. The older works that have been performed are gratefully received. He looks forward to the premiere of the FIELD MASS with Rafael Kubelík and the Czech Philharmonic, announced in the subscription concerts for 28 February and 1 March 1946, and THE PLAYS OF MARY at the Theatre of 5 May (formerly German Theatre). Could the Hudební matice count on publishing BM's songs? Has BM received a message from Dr. Holzknecht regarding the Conservatoire? OŠ wishes a pleasant stay in Paris.
