Sehr geehrter Herr,

ich danke Ihnen sehr für den freundlichen Brief.1 An d'Albert2 habe ich geschrieben, würde mich freuen, wenn er was schriebe.

Bitte, senden Sie mir im Abzug den Theil des Vortrages, den Sie bei mir zu sehen wünschen, ich hoffe, ihn dann bringen zu können, obwohl ich sonst nichts nehme, das anderswo erschienen ist.

Brahms giebt von den Bülowbriefen3 wohl nichts u. Rosenthal4 will nicht?

Mit verbindlichen Grüßen
Ihr ergebener

Dear Sir,

Thank you very much for your cordial letter.1 I have indeed written to D'Albert,2 would be happy if he would write something.

Please, send me the print of the part of the lecture that you would like to see me publish; I hope then to be able to bring it out, although I usually don't take anything that has appeared elsewhere.

Brahms isn't giving up any of the Bülow3 letters and Rosenthal4 doesn't want to?

With collegial greetings,

Yours truly,
[signed:] Harden

SUMMARY:
Harden thanks Schenker for a friendly letter and informs him that a submission from d'Albert would be welcomed; he encourages Schenker to send him a copy of a previously published lecture which he will consider publishing even though he usually does not reprint material published elsewhere; and he asks whether Brahms or Rosenthal will contribute any Bülow letters to Die Zukunft.
