Content and physical description
ContentDilia reiterates that she does not have, nor did she have, any piano excerpt from B&H. Indeed, B&H asks Dilia to return the autograph score [JULIETTY, with dedication to V. Talich]. Nor did Dilia receive a piano extract with English text from Wiesbaden. The autograph score of JULIETTY came from New York, so the English text was written in America, but Dilia cannot find out who the author is.
In view of Martinů's statement on the matter, Dilia will not return the autograph of JULIETTA [with dedication to V. Talich] to B&H.
Concerning the GREEK PASSIONS, Dilia communicated the contents of Martinů's last letter to the State Theatre in Brno and concerning MIRANDOLINA to the National Theatre in Prague. A copy of the letter was also sent to the CHF to inform them of Martinů's reasons for dealing with Alkor.
