Scope and content
Zuckerkandl hesitantly expresses interest in writing for Spectrum Austriae. He explains that he feels it impossible to separate Austrian music from German music and specifies that characteristics of Austrian music are inspired by the landscape of the country. Zuckerkandl further recommends Heinrich Schnitzler, director and teacher of theater history, for work on Spectrum Austriae.
