Handwritten letter from Schenker to Hertzka (UE), dated February 3, 1912

Dear Director,

Enclosed is gathering 8, which also contains the structural diagram of the second movement.¹ My instructions are given very precisely and clearly, so I hope that things will go more smoothly with the second diagram than with the first.

With kind regards,
Yours truly,
[ signed: ] H. Schenker
