Content and physical description

Content	Bruno Hyčka read the answer to František Martinů's letter in the magazine Náš rozhlas and is surprised that the composer had to live to an advanced age to receive a formal commemoration of his birthday. Together with [Ludvík] Kundera, they organise concerts and radio sessions, play more chamber works, and have INTERMEZZO [261] and SONATINA [262?] on the programme. He would have liked Bohuslav Martinů to write a violin concerto 'unencumbered by atonality and incomprehensibility for the audience'. They like BM 'for his clear and comprehensible music for everyone'.
