Zemlinsky, Alexander, 1871-1942. Correspondence to Alma Mahler and Gustav Mahler, 1900-1930.

Title: Correspondence to Alma Mahler and Gustav Mahler, 1900-1930.

The amount of original letters is 124 items; the remainder of the items comprise a comprehensive set of photocopies. 123 items are correspondence from Zemlinsky: 12 original items and typescripts of 111 items. Only 2 items from Zemlinsky are addressed to Gustav Mahler, and the remainder are addressed to Alma Mahler. 11 of the 12 original items of correspondence are dated 1900 to 1901; all of these were items inserted by Alma between the pages of her diary; see Tagebuch-Suiten ed. Beaumont and Rode-Breymann. The relevant diary entries in 1900 are as follows: 29 March; 15 April; 17 April; 6 June; 10 Aug.; 25 Aug.; 28 Oct.; 22 Dec.; and 27 Dec. The relevant diary entries in 1901 are: 27 April and 12 Aug. The 1 remaining original item from Zemlinsky is a letter dated ca. 1930, which he wrote from Berlin in response to a letter from Alma, at a point when his position at the Kroll Opera was about to end. The 111 typescripts are dated 1901 to ca. 1926, distributed chronologically as folllows: 57 items in 1901; 26 items dated 1904 to 1910; 17 items dated ca. 1911 to 1917; and 11 items dated 1918 to ca. 1926. Also included is 1 item which appears to be a 4-page typed manuscript prepared by Alma Mahler, which combines transcriptions of 1 letter from Zemlinsky, 1 letter from Felix Muhr, and 2 of Alma's own diary entries, all dated in March 1901; topics arising in these items are Zemlinsky's critique of Alma's composing; Alma's excitement over her work on her song "Ekstase," based on a text from Otto Julius Bierbaum; and Muhr's proposal of marriage. The 4 pages, which begin with the letter from Zemlinsky, have been given what appears to be a title: "Die Tragödie des hässlichen Menschen!" The text bears a few handwritten emendations by Alma, and the transcription of the 2 diary entries (21 March and 24 March 1901) reflects editing, in comparison to the original diary (published in Tagebuch-Suiten, referred to above). See the oversized container for additional items by Zemlinsky, as follows: 1 autograph of the music to the first act of a ballet, presumably Zemlinsky's music to Hofmannsthal's Triumph der Zeit (the sheet is believed to have been inserted in Alma's diary somewhere in Suite 23, ca. May to Aug. 1901); an autograph of Zemlinsky's song "In der Sonnengasse," signed and dated by him 29 Aug. 1901 for Alma's birthday on the 31st (the manuscript, which had been torn into 28 pieces and saved by Alma in a small envelope, has now been restored, with accompanying photocopies documenting the pieces as originally found); and a photostatic copy of a manuscript of the song "Ahnung Beatricens," based on a poem by Franz Werfel, dated Jan. 1935.

Schoenberg, Arnold, 1874-1951. Correspondence with Alma Mahler and Franz Werfel, 1906-1943.

Title: Correspondence with Alma Mahler and Franz Werfel, 1906-1943.

The correspondence, which is mainly addressed to Alma Mahler, documents her long-standing friendship with Schoenberg and support for his work, as well as his affection and regard for her and his engagement with the work of Gustav Mahler; it touches upon diverse aspects of Schoenberg's musical career. Roughly 40% of the correspondence comprises original items, dated from 1920 to 1963; the earlier correspondence, dated 1906 to 1920, exists in the form of typescripts. Topics of the earlier correspondence include Schoenberg's reflections on his own aesthetic in a dramatic text he had written; the merits of his wife, Mathilde, and his hopes that she would be included in invitations from Gustav and Alma Mahler; financial difficulties of and support for Schoenberg, including stipends through the Mahler foundation (in that context, exchanges concerning Richard Strauss's opinion of Schoenberg), the formation of a special fund (Arnold-Schönberg-Fond); mentions of Alma's friend Lilly Lieser; Schoenberg's lecture on Mahler, in 1912, and his comments on performances of Mahler's symphonies; Schoenberg's own current compositions and their performances; his responses to the outbreak and course of the First World War; his conducting of Mahler's adaptation of Beethoven's ninth symphony; his founding of a society for private musical performances (Verein für private Musik-Aufführungen); and Alma's gift to Schoenberg of 2 Mahler manuscripts. Topics of the later correspondence (from 1920 on) include plans for the foundation of a Mahlerbund; Schoenberg's decision to decline the invitation from Kandinsky and Gropius to teach at the Bauhaus; the death of Mathilde Schönberg and, later, Schoenberg's marriage to Gertrud Kolisch; Schoenberg's emigration to the U.S., in 1933; his teaching at UCLA and attempt to help Werfel find a position; performances of and reception of Schoenberg's work in the U.S.; his debate with music critic Olin Downes about Mahler's seventh symphony, as performed by the New York Philharmonic under Mitropoulos, in 1948; and his debate with Thomas Mann concerning Mann's references, in his novel Doktor Faustus, to Schoenberg's composition techique using 12 tones. After 1944 Gertrud Schoenberg takes a greater role in the correspondence, and she continues a friendship with Alma Mahler after Arnold's death. Included are a manuscript of Schoenberg's essay about Gustav Mahler written in 1911, after Mahler's death; a postcard bearing a photograph, apparently of Gertrud Schoenberg, in middle age; and the following newspaper clippings: 2 columns of Downes in the New York Times (1 of which includes Schoenberg's letter to him); the exchange between Schoenberg and Thomas Mann in letters to the editor of the Saturday Review; and various tributes in honor of Schoenberg's 70th birthday, published in the Austro American Tribune.
