Content and physical description
ContentPaul Sacher read in a newspaper that SINFONIETTA GIOCOSA for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, horn and strings was performed at the BBC in London. This was news to him; he did not know that BM had written a piece with this title for orchestra. Is it a new work? Can PS see the score? Or is this a confusion with the piece SINFONIETTA GIOCOSA for piano that BM wrote for Germaine Leroux?
BM has not yet replied to the writer as to where the royalty for CONCERTANT SYMPHONY [No. 2] should be sent.
PS and Maja Sacher salute the addressee and Charlotte Martinů.
