Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů sends Jan Novák some music - three pieces [it is not mentioned which pieces they are]. BM sends [Zdeněk] Zouhar a piano excerpt of the Wedding [ŽENITBA], so JN is to borrow it from him. BM wrote something for Polička [OPENING OF THE STUDIOS], which ZZ will also get. From Polička they wrote about Novák's success "with pianos" [perhaps THREE CZECH DANCES]. JN is to write about himself. BM [and Charlotte Martinů] leave Nice on 27 June and will travel and return to New York in October - BM gives address. Will JN be going to Polička?
