Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů informs Charlotta Martinů that tomorrow is the concert [performance of TWO CONCERTS] and wonders if it will be as successful as the premiere in Basel. He asks how the [Paul and Maja] Sachers are. He mentions that the composition of [CONCERTO FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA No. 3] is going very slowly, but hopefully it will catch up when they are finally settled in Prague. He wonders how his friends are: Anna [Masarykova] and whether ChM has seen Uncle Zazu [Louis Vautier] yet. ChM is to ask why Mischa [Elman] is not playing a concert. She also asks if she will see Marie [Martinů] and František [Martinů]. On the other side of the letter is a note: MIRÁKLY Macháček.
