Vorspiel zu einem Drama, 1914
Scope and Contents
This series, like the one before, is once again musical scores, libretti, and writing. However, these are ones not written by Kanitz, but rather annotated by him and retained for his personal reference. There is a large variety of scores within this series: some of them date from his time in Austria during the interwar period, some belonged to his wife, Gertrude Reif, and others were given to him by the people who had composed them (often these are signed to Kanitz with a note). The majority of them are published scores, but there are a few from friends that are manuscript/hand-written versions of the works.
