Content and physical description
ContentCharles Munch has heard about the performance of Bohuslav Martinů’s SYMPHONY NO. 6 in Prague and would like to know how come he hadn’t heard about it before, given the fact that his orchestra possesses all the rights to perform it in this season. The only consent ChM has given was to the work being broadcast by the BBC. Thomas Perry asks David Adams for information about this situation and about other possible performances so that he can answer ChM’s question. Everyone is pleased that the work has received the Critics Circle Award. ChM is planning to repeat it in New York and everyone hopes to see Mr. Boosey in person at the concert.
