Content and physical description

Content	Charlotte Martinů thanks Richard Klos for his letter [ID 9241]. She is very sorry that Paul Sacher refuses to conduct at the 1977 Prague Spring Festival. Perhaps [Josef] Páleníček will really convince him. Thanks also for the photographs, the memories of Prague made everyone happy. She received a letter from H[anse] Steinbeck, to whom Tomáš Hejzlar from Panton wrote, asking for the manuscript of BIRD'S FEATS. ChM goes on to explain that she has no manuscript, that she sent everything to the Foundation [Bohuslav Martinů Foundation in Basel?] in Zurich and that HS apparently does not know about it. ChM has already written to him and asks RK to discuss this with TH. This 1959 manuscript will undoubtedly turn up somewhere, ChM gives permission [to provide the manuscript to SUISA]. ChM asks about the health of K[arl] Shebanek. Is a visa for [Jaroslav] Mihule's family being dealt with? They have a lot of work to do. ChM asks RK to call Sasha Vettomov at 35-38-556 and tell him that ChM spoke to [Didier] Duclos of Boosey & Hawkes in Paris: VARIATIONS ON THE ROSSINI THEME are not yet sold out, whether SV inquires in Paris or in London with Muriel James. ChM asks that CHF send DD the score of LE JAZZ. There will be a concert in Paris in the autumn with music by [Igor] Stravinsky and [Sergei] Prokofiev; ChM has already provided DD with the score of the JAZZ SUITE. It is unbearably hot and dry in Vieux-Moulin.
