Content and physical description
ContentJohn Coombs asks whether in New York there are transparencies of the score of Bohuslav Martinů’s WHAT MEN LIVE BY. The BBC wants to present this opera prior to Christmas. In London there are transparencies of the parts, hence they can make copies, yet there is only one score, somewhere in Germany, and it is still being used. Can they send to London either the transparencies or a copy of the score?
