OJ 6/7, [43] Handwritten letter from Schenker to Moriz Violin, dated November 13, 1929
Urging his friend to write only when he feels up to it, Schenker gives Violin
some news of his own: that the Eroica Symphony monograph is finished but a publisher who is
capable of dealing with the numerous music examples must be found; that Schenker will work
unceasingly on Der freie Satz once the Eroica is out of the way; that the Photogram Archive
has grown in size in two years, and that so many requests for information have been received
that a yearbook is planned, with critical reports, new editions, and the like; that Hoboken
and Vrieslander have fallen out (over money matters); that Schenker's brother Mozio (Moses)
has separated from his wife after 25 years of marriage and that he his has been giving music
lessons to Mozio’s son, a cellist in the Baden city orchestra.
OJ 6/7, [44] Handwritten letter from Schenker to Violin, dated November 24, 1929
After reply to some of the more personal points in Violin's previous letter,
Schenker welcomes his friend's efforts to look for a publisher for the Eroica Symphony
monograph, noting that, in spite of the difficulties that Hertzka has caused him, his books
are still in print and his status as a theorist has been acknowledged by the the fact that
the universities of Heidelberg and Leipzig have expressed an interest in appointing him. A
recent article in the Deutsche Tonkünstler-Zeitung will give Violin further ammunition when
approaching a publisher. That same issue also contains an article by Schoenberg touching on
various canonic works (Bach, Prelude in C sharp minor for the Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1;
Beethoven, Seventh Symphony, finale; Mozart, slow introduction to the "Dissonant" Quartet).
He feels that it is beneath his dignity to make a formal reply; but to illustrate what he
means, and why he is contemptuous of Schoenberg, he provides several voice-leading graphs
and other music examples concerning these works.
