Furtwängler/Wagner.- Two typewritten letters to Wilhelm Matthes (music writer and composer; 1889-1973), each signed. Framed under passe-partout together with newspaper clippings. 1. Furtwängler, Wilhelm (conductor and composer; 1886-1954). Potsdam, April 20, 1937: 'The aims of the Hans Pfitzner Society, as you outline them, have my full agreement. I gladly accept the honorary chairmanship of the Society. How far I will be able to conduct the first orchestral concert with Pfitzner's works myself, I cannot currently assess, as my schedule for the autumn is already largely booked.' - See W. Furtwängler's estate, correspondence, B L. 121. 2. Wagner, Winifred (Festival Director and daughter-in-law of Richard Wagner; 1897-1980). Nuremberg, November 23, 1930: 'Whether two complimentary tickets can be sent, however, I do not know, because we have stipulated in principle that only one complimentary ticket can be given for each publication; the second must be paid for.'
