Bohuslav Martinů replies to the letter of 22 August [1951] and protests against the publication of the compositions [LOUTKA] in the volume "Tschechische Klaviermusik", which he wrote at the age of about 16 [!]. The collection is supposed to represent Czech piano production, and the cultural council in Berlin could certainly find something else in his work, not these childish compositions. [Orbis] is to respond in this sense.
