The Lending Department of the publishing house confirms receipt of the score of Bohuslav Martinů's SINFONIE CONCERTANTE by Paul Sacher. This is the only source of this work in their library. If the PS so requests, they can photocopy the score for him, but the price will only be ascertained retrospectively. Or he can wait for prints, but that will take some time.

Dear Mr. Sacher,



               Thank you for your letter of the 25th November confirming the return of Martinu’s “SINFONIA CONCERTANTE” full score.



               This copy is the only one in our Library and as yet, there are no printed scores available. If you wish we could photograph the score you have seen, but we cannot give you a quotation until it comes back. Would you please let us know whether you would be agreeable to have a photographed  copy, or whether you would prefer to wait until printed copies become available – wich will not be for some time yet.



                                                           With compliments,



                                                                          Yours faithfully,



                                                                          BOOSEY & HAWKES LIMITED,



                                                                          [podpis]



                                                                          Hire Department.
