The volume is the first edition of all known and available letters between Arnold Schoenberg and over seventy American composers, written between 1915 and 1951 in English and English translation and with commentary. It includes numerous unknown letters and casts new light on Schoenberg's American years, his American composers colleagues and his life and works in the United States. The book qualifies the concept of, and Schoenberg's association with, the Second Viennese School and reveals hitherto unknown aspects of Schoenberg's biography.
