Content and physical description
ContentBM has finished the opera SLZY KNIFE, but the translator hasn't come - get Fina to get someone. He'll send Hindemith an elevator in 10 days, he needs an address. It can be translated freely. The music's sharp, it'll be a rush. What does he say to the libretto? He'll need to translate a small article, he'll get that tomorrow and send it to Fina right away. Stanya [Novak] says he'll arrange it with LA BAGARRE. Let Fina write how the overture [Soldier and Dancer?] went on Sunday. Nothing has come from the Ministry yet. Now he's going to start on the symphony [RHAPSODIE, H 171]. He's got rid of the flu.
