Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů informs the Webers that he is hard at work on the concerto [CONCERT FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA No. 5] and thanks them once again for their stay in Arosa. As all his manuscripts have remained in Switzerland, he had only part of the manuscript of THE ROCKS with him (see 1022), but as soon as he returns to Switzerland he will give them another complete manuscript [?] They regret that they did not meet Weber in Zurich, they will go there again and BM will show them the first movement of the concerto, he will discuss his opera [GREEK PASSION] there. In the meantime they will be with the Sachers and also in Paris for a few days.
