Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů sends Jan Novák some notes. If JN already has them, he should give them out. BM sends Eliska [Nováková] the SONATA FOR CLAVIER. EN will be uncomfortable with it, but she will have the first performance. It will be premiered by [Rudolf] Serkin in the fall and EN can count on a performance next year. BM is to warn others not to send him anything else, especially not that Janáček about national songs. BM has commissioned it from [Karel] Šebánek. JN is to get the book for himself. BM is already packing and going to Paris - he gives the address. JN is probably already going to the cottage where the topis with the manuscripts will be? Greetings to [Zdeněk] Zouhar.
