Note into a Scrapbook (Lístek do památníku, H 241) is a piece of instructional genre, the opening bars in melody close to the folk song "Zelení hájové...". Martinů wrote it for the daughter of the music critic, historian and lexicographer Gracian Černušák [1882–1961], Jiřina, shortly after the world premiere of his opera The Plays of Mary [H 236], performed in Brno.
