Ernst Roth thanks Paul Sacher for his letters of 5 and 6 October [1955]. ER reads the score of Bohuslav Martinů's EPOS ON GILGAMES. He sends it back immediately. Meanwhile BM has flown back to New York and so ER has not caught up with him.

Herrn Paul Sacher,

Schönenberg,

Pratteln, Basel.

 



Lieber Herr Sacher,



                Haben Sie vielen Dank für Ihre beiden Briefe vom 5. und 6. Oktober. Ich lese die Partitur GILGAMESH am Tag da ich sie erhalte und sende sie dann gleich zurück. Inzwischen ist Martinu wohl nach New York zurückgeflogen und ich hätte ihn gerne gesehen, aber das lässt sich wohl nicht ändern.



                                                               Ich bin mit herzlichen Grüssen,



                                                                                              Ihr,



                                                                               [podpis]



                                                                               Dr. E. Roth.
