Very honored Dr. [Schenker] , 1

Best thanks for your card of the 20th of this month. I have had the Munich Beethoven Volume collected again today. I have already written to Universal Edition about Opus 109; I hope, however, that in the event of the realization of this plan, you will provide us with an extract of your elucidatory edition as a foreword.


With the best wishes,
Yours very truly,
