[1951]. ES odpovídá na dotaz ohledně rukopisu a provozovacích materiálů Persephony Igora Stravinského. SINFONIA CONCERTANTE Bohuslava Martinů půjde do tisku a vazby v následujících týdnech. Boosey&Hawkes plánují v blízké budoucnosti vydat i TOCCATU E DUE CANZONI. Ačkoliv je rukopis preciznější než je u Martinů zvykem, ES bude rád za upozornění na chyby. ES se těší na setkání příští týden a potom ve Vídni, kam se chystá přijet na jeho koncert. Show AI translation Erwin Stein thanks Paul Sacher for his letter of 14 March [1951]. ES replies to a query about the manuscript and operational materials of Igor Stravinsky's Persephone. Bohuslav Martinů's SINFONIA CONCERTANTE will go to press and binding in the coming weeks. Boosey & Hawkes also plan to publish TOCCATA E DUE CANZONI in the near future. Although the manuscript is more precise than is usual with Martinů, EC will be glad to have errors pointed out. ES is looking forward to seeing them next week and then in Vienna, where he plans to attend a concert. Show original
Transcription of the letter	Dear Mr. Sacher, Thank you for your letter of the 14th March. Persephone. The material which you used in Basel must still be with Krompholz. There is of course no objection to your taking the material with you, provided that the people in Vienna and Cologne are informed that they have to pay the hiring fee to our agents in these cities. I understand that our agents both in Vienna and Germany have materials of the work, but these are completely new. The Martinu Sinfonia Concertante will still take a few weeks before it is printed and bound. We intend to begin in the near future engraving the Martinu Toccata & Due Canzones, another work connected with you if I remember rightly. The score of this work seems at first sight to be more accurate than in the case of many other Martinu works. However, I should be grateful if you remembered any important mistakes or points. I am very much looking forward to seeing you next week, and lated in Vienna when I come to your concert on the 7^th April. If I can manage I shall be there on the 4^th (Persephone). With kind regards Yours sincerely, [podpis] Erwin Stein
