Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů apologizes for the late reply. Thanks for the excellent translation, asks Jos Vranken to pass on his thanks to Miss Borgmeyer, who is also writing. BM would like Schott to publish THE MOUNTAIN OF THREE LIGHTS, the work is publisher free. The matter is unfortunately delayed by the death of his friend Willy Strecker. Also the question of Morton's text will have to be settled, but BM will do that directly with Schott. JV with his choir should perform GILGAMES. BM is no longer working with Boosey and Hawkes.
