Content and physical description
ContentErnst Roth has discussed with Mr. Ralph [Hawkes] questions regarding reproduction of music and has given Betty Bean information regarding pieces of interest. THE THREE MADRIGALS AND VARIATIONS ON ROSSINI The Bohuslav Martinů theme is now being devoured. FIVE CZECH MADRIGALS are being translated. The 4th and 5th SYMPHONIES will be engraved later this year/early next year. Is there a version for two pianos of SINFONIETTA GIOCOSA? Important. Is there also a piano lift of the 2nd PIANO CONCERT? Making a full score of Piston's symphony will be expensive.
