OJ 15/16, [93] Handwritten letter from Hans Weisse to Schenker, dated July 27, 1933

Weisse thanks Schenker for a copy of an (unidentified) essay; he is preoccupied by news of his father's death, and reports that the year ahead will be a difficult one for America, in spite of the more optimistic mood that has come about since Roosevelt became President. He has completed a Variations and Fugue on a Popular American Song, for two pianos, and is now at work on a new string quartet.
