Musikwissenschaftliche Studienbibliothek, Peters. Leipzig, 1978. Oblong, 32 x 24 cm, 43, 36 pp. Fine 3-color collotype of the autograph fair copy of “Gretchen am Spinnrade”; “Schäfers Klagelied”; “Rastlose Liebe”; “Geistes-Gruß”; “An Mignon”; “Nähe des Geliebten”; “Meeres Stille”; “Wandrers Nachlied”; “Der Fischer”; “Erster Verlust”; “Die Spinnerin”; “Heidenröslein”; “Wonne der Wehmut”; “Erlkönig”; “Der König in Thule”; & “Jägers Abendlied”. On the suggestion of his friends the 19 year-old Schubert specially prepared this manuscript for Goethe, sending it to him in April 1816—with the intent of making the settings known to the poet and possibly enlisting his help in promoting them. Unfortunately the action was met by bitter disappointment, as the great poet returned Schubert’s manuscript to Vienna without comment. Includes line-cut reproduction of the first edition of “Gretchen am Spinnrade” and commentary in Ger by Peter Hauschild. Handsome binding with beige linen boards and titles in red lettering. $166
