General information

Content and physical description

Content	Boosey & Hawkes often receive enquiries for Bohuslav Martinů compositions, which B&H do not have, so they refer requesters directly to Charlotte Martinů. But because the material is not immediately available, potential performances are wasted. Gertrude Smith therefore asks who has such works. Among other things, they have received a request from the San Francisco Symphony for the CONCERTO FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA No. 3. [Attached to the letter is a slip with ChM's handwritten reply: she immediately wrote to Pantone to have the score of the CONCERTO FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA No. 3 sent to the San Francisco Symphony. She asks GS to write to San Francisco to expect the shipment. If it does not reach them, she can either send the material herself to GS or directly to the San Francisco Symphony. Mr. David Adams will come to London].
