Autograph musical quotation from the important Austrian composer, who has neatly penned four measures of the piano part from his Kammerkonzert (mm. 323–5, marked "Schleppend"), signed below and dated January 30, 1927. On a small card, inscribed at the head to a Cuban collector. Together with the original transmissal envelope, stamped on the flap with Berg's address and with the addition of "Vienna, Austria" in his hand. Overall toning and some light foxing; otherwise fine. 5.25 x 3 inches (13.4 x 7.5 cm).

Berg's Kammerkonzert für Klavier und Geige mit 13 Bläsern (Chamber Concerto for Piano and Violin with 13 Wind Instruments) was composed between 1923 and 1925 and premiered on March 19, 1927. A notable feature of the piece is Berg's use of melodic themes based on the names of his colleagues in the Second Viennese School; for example, A(l)ban Be(r)g becomes A-B flat-A-B flat-E-G.
