Content and physical description
ContentMartinů picked up a voucher from Mr. Mark. The BBC wants to perform 'a string trio, it is undoubtedly a Concertino' [CONCERTINO FOR CLASSICAL TRIO AND STRING ORCHESTRA]. Melantrich is to negotiate the loan and return of the material.
Is everything all right about JULIETTA? Heller apologises to Martinů, it is not a good time to perform TWELVE ALEXANDERS, he reserves the performance for later.
In Brno they are to negotiate about THE BRIDGE OF THE BRIDGE and THE VOICE OF THE FOREST, and at the same time they are to enquire in London about performing THE LEGEND OF ST. DOROTHY.
