Content and physical description
ContentOn Fina's advice, BM sent the application along with a statement of "activity" to the Legacy. It lists the pieces involved. On 5.3. the "Concerto" will be played at Mrs Descaves' concert. He has been promised more help from Novak. He has written a Sextet for piano and 5 wind instruments to audition from Mrs. Coolidge. He has applied for support for translation and piano recital [of the opera Three Wishes]. There seems to be a lot of favorable talk about BM, too much, he wonders where they get their information. Beriza has accepted his ballet, but it is badly managed, he will probably give it up soon. They wrote to him from Amsterdam asking if he had compositions for them. He was thinking of Klemperer with The Tempest.
