Content and physical description
ContentCharlotte Martinů writes that her husband received from Paris a SONATA FOR TWO PIANOS AND A CLAVIER. He offers it at his disposal, anyone from the Koutzen family can come and get it. She also writes that they are trying to get a place on a boat to France, but it is very difficult, and it is certain that in any case they will not leave for France before the middle of June. Bohuslav Martinů then adds that he will send the Concerto for Violin and Orchestra No. 2, which he promised long ago [see ID 5169].
