MŠ si pamatuje skvělé Kusevického provedení první symfonie BM, která bohužel nebyla kritiky v New Yorku pochopena, s výjimkou Virgila Thompsona [sic]. Zavedl by pravidlo, že by kritici nesměli psát o novém díle, pokud si předem neprostudovali partituru a nenavštívili několik provedení. Zve Kusevického na večeři po koncertě 7.1. k paní Iče Waldes, která v Praze se svým manželem podporovala umělce. MŠ is remembering Koussevitzky's magnificent performance of Martinů's First Symphony, which, however, with the exception of Virgil Thompson [sic] was not understood by the New York critics. He would recommend a rule, according to which critics would not be permitted to write about a new work, if they previously had not studied the score and heard it in several performances. He invites SK to supper after his concert on January 7 at the apartment of Mme Iča Waldes, who together with her husband supported art in Prague.

He invites Koussevitzky to dinner after the 7 January concert at the home of Mrs. Iche Waldes, who was in Prague with her husband supporting the artist.
