Content and physical description
ContentTogether with Ralph Hawkes and Ernst Roth, Betty Bean deals with various working issues (especially copies of scores that are already in poor condition). They discussed which works by Bohuslav Martinů they will include in the catalogue and which 2-3 chamber works they will offer for loan. BB encloses a list of compositions that BM has drawn up. He does not know if it is complete, will still send him a copy to check. RH and BB ask if ER has any ideas on how they can use BM's work and promote it in Europe.
