[1930]
Schenker thanks Deutsch for his careful, helpful reading of the proofs
to the third Meisterwerk yearbook. -- Tomay has assigned the autography of the
foreground graphs for the second movement of the "Eroica" Symphony to an apprentice;
these are full of mistakes and will have to be done again. But Tomay’s own work, on
the third and fourth movements, is excellent. -- In a postscript, he comments on his
entry in the most recent Meyers Lexikon, and on a review of the second Meisterwerk
yearbook in the Deutsche Tonkünstler-Zeitung.
