Bohuslav Martinů děkuje za dopis z 10. září; o "Symposium on Music Criticism" se velmi zajímá a rád přijímá nabídku o napsání komorní skladby pro toto symposium. Chce napsat smyčcový kvartet [SMYČCOVÝ KVARTET č. 6]; snad nebude problém, že na plánovaném koncertě zazní dvakrát skladba v tomto obsazení. Kvartet s klavírem psát nechce, nedávno jeden dokončil [KLAVÍRNÍ KVARTET?]. Partitura bude hotova do února. BM by rád měl exemplář Merrittovy "analýzy Palestrinovy hudby" [Sexteenth-Century Polyphony: A Basis for the Study of Counterpoint, (Harvard University Press, 1939)].

Bohuslav Martinů thanks you for your letter of 10 September; he is very interested in the "Symposium on Music Criticism" and is happy to accept the offer to write a chamber piece for the symposium. He would like to write a string quartet [SMITH QUARTET No. 6]; perhaps it will not be a problem to have two performances of this piece at the planned concert. He does not want to write a quartet with piano; he has recently completed one [PIANO QUARTET?]. The score will be ready by February. BM would like to have a copy of Merritt's "analysis of Palestrina's music" [Sexteenth-Century Polyphony: A Basis for the Study of Counterpoint, (Harvard University Press, 1939)].
