Content and physical description
ContentMŠ has received several letters from BM in France, asking that MŠ give SK news about BM. BM has a visa and will leave soon for New York via Lisbon. He is still composing, as SK will see from the enclosed brochure. The following works should be especially interesting to SK: Double Concerto, Concerto Grosso, La Messe aux Champs d'honneur and Sinfonia [sic], written exclusively for Madame Germaine Leroux.
Informative Brochure about BM and his works.
At the end: "For further information on BOHUSLAV MARTINU and his composition, write to: AMERICAN FRIENDS OF CZECHOSLOVAKIA / 8 West 40th Street New York, N. Y."
