Correspondence to Alma Mahler, 1913-1935.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/155864760

15 items dated 1913 to 1917 are in the form of typescripts, which were made at the direction of Alma Mahler for a manuscript entitled "Meine Freunde"; in that manuscript, these typescripts of letters from Webern were integrated with those of letters from Schoenberg, presumably because matters related to Schoenberg and his financial support are frequently the main topic of these letters. The letter jointly from Berg and Webern calls attention to a fund for Schoenberg's support (Arnold Schönberg Fond) that had been in existence since 1911. The remaining correspondence comprises 7 original items dated 1933 to 1935. In this later period 3 items (including the item from Webern to Berg) pertain to a Festschrift in honor of Arnold Schoenberg, jointly initiated by Webern and Berg, which was to be published by Universal Edition, apparently in honor of Schoenberg's 60th birthday. 1 item is a condolence letter upon the death of Alma's daughter Manon Gropius.
