Content and physical description

Content	Křička marvels at the quote - knowing this, BM would write about how his work appeals to him more and more. He praises his style. The last time he spoke to BM was in 1939, when Křička conducted several works (including his own) and BM praised him. He recalls a lunch together with the Martins. During a visit to their home in Vořechovka, they talked about compositional problems; BM has the most trouble deciding on something. How come BM's cacophony sounds nice too?
