Content and physical description
ContentVáclav Kaprál sends [Miloš Šafránek] another series of letters [probably correspondence between Bohuslav Martinů and Vítězslava Kaprálová]. He does not know exactly when the undated letters were written, he does not read them and leaves them fully available to the MŠ for possible processing. BM was in Three Wells for about a week, then VK was with them [in Polička] for a few days. VK liked to discuss his compositions with BM and during their trip to London together he told BM that he should have thrown everything he had composed in the bin and started again. He forgot to tell [Břetislav] Bakala, he spoke to him today. BB has concerts fixed, but would like to play something with the lady from MŠ [Germaine Leroux] on the radio. VK urges him to write to BB directly to say what the piece would be. Too bad they didn't talk in person, BB was at the Art Talk party where MS talked about BM. In the end he thanks for the invitation for coffee, he will come to Prague in mid-November, BB has a concert on the 18th of November and one of his compositions (VK) will be played.
