Content and physical description
ContentRudolf Firkušný thanks for his letter of 12 [12. 1958]. At the same time he informs that the sheet music of the 2nd and 3rd editions of the book are available. of Bohuslav Martinů's Piano Concerto are with Boosey & Hawkes. The voices are already printed, but the score is not. RF recently played the 2nd CONCERT in Amsterdam with the Concertgebouw, where they received the performance materials from B&H without any problem, so they are surprised that Karel Šebánek cannot get them. The 2nd CONCERT is owned by Germaine Leroux. The piano arrangement exists only from the 2nd CONCERT, not from the 3rd.
