Correspondence from Others, 1889-1962
This subseries begins with folders entitled "General Correspondence" that are organized chronologically and contain letters from unidentified correspondents. These letters are addressed to Erich, Julius, and Luzi Korngold and largely date after 1938, when the family moved to the United States. Letters to various individuals and organizations from the Korngolds and Sonnenthals document their frantic attempts to get Luzi's aunt Lori Nossal and uncle Adolf Ritter out of Europe before they were deported by the Nazis. This subseries also contains letters from prominent cultural figures, including Alma Mahler-Werfel, Eugene Ormandy, Bruno Walter, Dimitri Mitropolous, Fritz Reiner, Walt Disney, and prominent Austrian musicians such as Maria Jeritza and Jarmila Novotna, who performed lead roles in Violanta and Helen Goes to Troy, respectively. Also contained is a brief note to Julius by Johannes Brahms, written on the back of Brahms' calling card. Most of the material in this series is in German.
