Robert Vannoy dostal 21. 7. poštou kopii knihy Charlotty Martinů "Můj život s Bohuslavem Martinů", kterou z francouzštiny do angličtiny přeložil dr. Diederik Cornelius Dignus De Jong z Cincinnati v Ohiu. Kniha vyšla v roce 1978 a tento exemplář je věnován Vannoyovi od překladatele, s nímž si RV v posledních letech dopisoval. MŠ knihu nepochybně zná. Kdyby ne, vyšla v Praze u "Orbis Press Agency" [?, vydáno u Supraphonu]. Je zajímavá a krásně přeložená do angličtiny. MŠ a jeho žena [Germaine Leroux] jsou tam často zmiňováni. RV tam našel několik překvapivých informací, zejména co se týče nahrávek: nevěděl, že Kühnův dětský sbor ["Paul Kuhn Children's Choir", zřejmě míněn Jan Kühn] nahrál OTVÍRÁNÍ STUDÁNEK, že Charles Munch nahrál exkluzivně pro BM PARABOLY a že Conrad Beck má nahrávku PASTOREL ZE STOWE. To jsou krásné výrazy úcty.
Mohlo být zajímavé, kdyby ChM psala více o svém životě po roce 1959.

Robert Vannoy received in the mail on July 21 a copy of Charlotte Martinů's book "My Life with Bohuslav Martinů", translated from French into English by Dr. Diederik Cornelius Dignus De Jong of Cincinnati, Ohio. The book was published in 1978 and this copy is dedicated to Vannoy by the translator with whom RV corresponded in recent years. The MC is undoubtedly familiar with the book. If not, it was published in Prague by "Orbis Press Agency" [?, published by Supraphon]. It is interesting and beautifully translated into English. MS and his wife [Germaine Leroux] are often mentioned there. RV found some surprising information there, especially regarding recordings: he did not know that the Kühn Children's Choir ["Paul Kuhn Children's Choir", probably meaning Jan Kühn] had recorded OPENING STUDIES, that Charles Munch had recorded exclusively for BM PARABOLY, and that Conrad Beck had a recording of PASTOREL FROM STOWE. These are beautiful tributes.
It might have been interesting if ChM had written more about her life after 1959.
