Content and physical description
ContentThe writer received a telegram from Charlotte Martinů and a letter from Edmond Carrière of the [National Opera in] Lyon. In Dilia, they do not have a French translation of JULIETTA; only the sheet music was sent to Lyon. The French translation was made by Bronislaw Horowitz in 1961 for the use of Paris Radio, which broadcast the opera in early 1962. (The writer refers to a letter from RTF dated 17 Jan 1962.) Boosey & Hawkes in Paris and SACD, which represented Horowitz, were also involved in the matter.
ChM was to approach SACD. Dilia will send a copy of this letter to SACD and Carrière. Hopefully the French translation will be delivered to him as soon as possible.
