Content and physical description
ContentErnest Roth asks Bohuslav Martinů for the exact time frame of his stay in Europe. He will try to meet him between May 10th and 15th in Paris. The third act of LOCANDIERA was sent to BM by surface mail on March 14th. ER is very pleased with the success of SYMPHONY 6. David Adams recently wrote about the possible exclusivity of the piece for the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which ER did not know about and sincerely hopes it will not happen. ER will ensure that the dedication of SYMPHONY No. 6, which BM mentions in the previous correspondence [BH 1956-03-26], appears on the score. [Inscription that Mr. Andrewes was advised to this task]
