Content and physical description
ContentAlfred Schlee thanks for the May 16 letter. He doesn't think there will be any problems with B.I.E.M. as they also represent Universal Edition. They are sending a signed form from UE to Bohuslav Martinů and will make sure the accounts are in order.
A decision regarding the launch of GREEK PASSIONS in London must be made within these days. In the meantime, the Passions are again requested from Zurich. AS would prefer to wait until after the London performance for the German premiere.
AS has communicated to Mr. K. Füssl, who wrote the piano lift for EPOS ON GILGAMES, BM's wishes regarding the piano lift of the GREEK PASSIONS.
The Cleveland Orchestra played PIERA DELLA FRANCESCA's FRESKI in Madrid and will play them in Prague.
