Content and physical description
ContentErnst Roth denies that he was angry with Karel Šebánek and adds that he replied to his letter. He is glad that KS is doing well and that he will be able to "see the world". He hopes to see him. ER rarely goes to Regent Street, and has written a book, Musik als Kunst und Ware, which will be published in Zurich and in English in London. So he has plenty of work to do, and once a week he has to look after the publishers. He writes that they will go to Budapest for the funeral of Zoltán Kodály, whom he knew for 40 years. ER hopes KS will write a book about Martinů, he believes KS has unique personal experiences. KS is to write if he goes on the trip, ER would like to see him. Greetings to KS from his wife and mother.
