[Schoenberg, Arnold. (1874-1951)] Wellesz , Egon. (1885-1974). "Arnold Schönberg" - The Earliest Monograph on Schoenberg, Inscribed to Anton Webern. Leipzig Wien Zürich: E. P. Tal & Co.. 1921. 12mo. Original publisher's decorative paper boards. 1f. (with publisher's device), [iii] (title), [iv] (copyright notices, printer's note), 1f. (motto), 7-[151] (text), [ii] (chronological table), [i] (table of contents), [ii] (advertisements) pp. With folding facsimile of a sketch leaf for the 5 Orchestral Pieces, op. 16. Preserved in a custom-made brown cloth-covered folding box with black leather title label gilt to spine. Binding slightly worn and browned. Lower outer corners of first few signatures slightly dampstained; annotation in pencil to p. 128.

With an autograph inscription from the author to Anton Webern to upper right corner of recto of first sheet in pencil dated February 1, 1921: "Anton v. Webern in aufrichtiger Gesinnung Egon Wellesz 1 Februar 21."

First Edition of the earliest monograph on Schoenberg, inscribed to fellow Austrian composer and conductor Anton Webern, member of the Second Viennese School, student, significant follower of, and influence on Arnold Schoenberg, one of the best-known exponents of the twelve-tone technique.

In 1904-5, Egon Wellesz was one of Schoenberg's first students, perhaps even his very first. Unlike Alban Berg and Anton von Webern, he soon parted with his teacher to focus on musicology. He continued to compose prolifically, and even though he cultivated a more traditional idiom, his veneration for Schoenberg and discipleship to him remained unbroken, as attested to by the present volume.
