Content and physical description
ContentAndré de Blonay sends BM, together with the letter, the programme of their concert, at which the [Swiss] premiere of the PIANO QUINTET No. 1 took place last year. It was a great success and the AdB would like to have another work by BM performed in the coming season. He enquires about the STRING SEXTET which was recently performed in Paris – whether it has been published and, if not, where the performance material can be obtained. If this is not possible, they could include the STRING QUINTET on the programme, AdB asks about the publisher of this piece. They would be very happy for BM to entrust them with the premiere of one of his forthcoming chamber works. If BM already has something, they could include it in the programme for next winter.
