Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů writes to Jiří Tancibudek that he has been lost and without an address for over three months and is now back in New York and would like to hear from JT about [CONCERT FOR HOBOY AND SMALL ORCHESTRA]. MB writes at the same time to P. McNicoll that he accepts his terms - no one but JT will get it for one year. As for the honorarium, the best solution would be to deposit the sum of $750 in MB's name in a bank in Switzerland. BM is going to Europe in the spring, so he would pick it up. BM asks JT to write soon to let him know how everything is shaping up, whether he has done [CONCERT FOR HOBOY AND SMALL ORCHESTRA] or when it will be on the program, and how he and the audience like it. BM is also interested in JT's plans and playing opportunities. He does not yet have an apartment in New York, but gives an address for JT to write to him. At the end of the letter, BM includes greetings from Stella Steiner.
