COMMENTARY:
Format: diary entry

FOOTNOTES:

¹ Prof. Rettich [biog note]

² There appears to be a question-mark after “Alph”, but it is unclear. Baron Alphons von Rothschild, who had paid the publication costs of Harmonielehre and was to do so those of Kontrapunkt I.

³ i.e. Kontrapunkt II. However, it is possible that the superscript „2“ and period may in fact be a question-mark, in which case it would read: „giving support to vol. II as well?”

SUMMARY:

[ NMTP II = Kontrapunkt:] Prof. Rettich holds out hope of Rothschild giving financial support to vol.II/2 (or vol.II?).
