Content and physical description
ContentBohuslav Martinů received news today from Boosey & Hawkes that they are unable to release the DVOJKONCERT due to the current situation. However, he thinks that Paul Sacher can include it in the programme. BM will certainly find a publisher who will at least make a copy of the material. He will ask Schott or rather Eschig. Could PS recommend him to another publisher in London? BM remembers that PS also talked about [Oxford] University Press.
He started working again. He also wrote to America asking how he could get there and make money before the opportunity arose to return to Prague. He asks for Conrad Beck's address.
They spent the holidays [with Charlotte Martinů] at the Vieux Moulin. BM is happy to be able to concentrate on music again.
