Content and physical description
ContentFrom [Karel] Šebánek of Melantrich the Czech Philharmonic learned that Boosey & Hawkes had not yet sent the orchestral parts ordered two months ago. They are therefore asking that Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, Bohuslav Martinů's Double Concerto, Prokofiev's Symphony No. 6 and Piano Concerto No. 3, and Martinů's Symphony No. 3 be sent as soon as possible. The two first works are needed as soon as possible as the ČF want to perform them in their concerts on 25 and 30 September. The others just need to be sent in by the end of September.
