Content and physical description

Content	Karl Vötterle would like to thank Paul Sacher for putting him in touch with Bohuslav Martinů and for providing him with sheet music of BM compositions. He acknowledges receipt of this material and has a few comments to make: 1) KV received transparencies and a copy of PARABOL. 2) INKANTATION 3) Piano Concerto [incorrect - they mean Incantations - ed note]. 4) CONCERTO FOR TWO VIOLINS AND ORCHESTRA 5) SONATA FOR FLUTE, VIOLIN AND PIANO 6) TWO MEN'S CHORUSES to Czech text and one men's choir to English text If Mr. A. Prins did not have the German translations of the above choruses, he would have the KV texts translated by Kurt Honolka; Paul Sacher should arrange this with Bohuslav Martinů. Furthermore, KV suggests the order of the text variants in the choruses. 7) LA LOCANDIERA KV would like to have a German translation of the text done. Where is the piano extract of the opera now? Is it really in the Basler Stadttheater? Asks PS to send it to the publisher. He would like to forward the draft contract to BM via PS. He is firmly determined to take on the BM's work with all the intensity of a publisher. He corrects the addressee about the death of Mrs Albrecht.
