Content and physical description
ContentThanks for the letter, glad he was interested in the work (Tre Ricercari); he does not have the score here, but the work will be published by Boosey and Hawkes; Mr Robertson could contact the publisher directly; orchestra composition: 1fl, 2 ob, 2 fg, 2 tp, 2 pf, 6 vl, 3 vlc; he has another work with two pianos: Concerto Grosso, to be published by UE in Vienna during the summer, orchestra composition: 1fl, 3 ob, 3 clar, 3 cor, 2 pf and strings; he sends a list of his works, but he can't remember the youngest ones, he threw away a lot of them too; Radio does nothing for him, he doesn't like Ingelbrecht, he would much rather work with Rosenthal, whom he suggested to give him an extract from Juliette, but it's dragging on too long; he would like to ask him for something: does he still have any manuscripts he would like to see published; how could the Chester publishing house be approached?; it is a Double Concerto, a work he likes very much and which will certainly have a great response; it is to be premiered at Paul Sacher's concert next season (9 February 1940); could he inform Chester, the manuscript is with Boosey and Hawkes, who have several other things from him, the work would be free; it's more difficult about the article, he thought of José Bruyr or J.P. Jouve, but he wants to look further.
