Content and physical description
ContentHe sends his greetings from Bohuslav Martinů, who says he has not heard from Karel Šebánek for a long time, and wishes that KŠ would get the place he deserves. He sent a list of new compositions in a letter to [Miloš] Šafránek, and Marie Martinů copied the whole list for KS. They wrote from Prague to BM about JULIETTA, BM thinks they will reach an agreement. Orbis did not answer him. BM is excited about the return of Václav Talich. They ask KS for advice if they can ask BM to come home to see them. They have not seen each other for a long time. If KS would come, they would be happy to welcome him and could talk about many things. Wouldn't that be good for the holidays? They have been looking forward to seeing him for a long time and still no visit. BM also mentions that he would need a good librettist, which he doesn't write to.

The following is a list of BM's compositions.
