Scope and content
Sender [likely Claire Humphrey] advises Ritsema that he should pursue the publication of both volumes of Sound and Symbol [Music and the External World, Man the Musician] in German by contacting prospective publishers. She offers to send copies of the U.S. edition to show publishers and suggests some possible publishers. She also suggests contacting Wolfgang Sauerland for help and ideas and hiring an agent that is more familiar with German publishers and can help advertise the books [second page missing].
