Content and physical description
ContentBoosey & Hawkes have cancelled some of the contracts with Bohuslav Martinů. The sender hopes that some of the autographs can be maintained in NYC until Bohuslav Martinů deposits them elsewhere. In July, Ernst Roth handed over to the sender the score [“manuscript” in the letter, yet it probably concerned a blueprint] of the CONCERTO FOR HARPSICHORD AND SMALL ORCHESTRA to have a look at, yet now he wants it back, so the sender is sending it to NYC.
