New York: G. Schirmer [PN 42196c], 1944. Octavo. Full dark green cloth, titling gilt to spine. 1f. (title, instrumentation), 58 pp. Binding slightly rubbed and shaken. First Edition. Rufer (E), p. 71-72. GA B/14, p. 55-57. "It was Carl Engel, the president of Schirmer Publishing in New York, who suggested to Schönberg that he compose the Theme and Variations for Full Band, Op. 43. Engel had two objectives in mind; for one thing, he believed that the American wind band repertoire should be enriched by a challenging work from an outstanding composer of new music and, for another, he thought that a success in that medium, so popular in America, could help Schönberg out of his financial difficulties. ... Even while the piece was still being written, it soon became clear that the complexity of Schönberg's setting could possibly exceed the technical capabilities of most American wind bands. So, in a letter dated August 16, 1942, Greissle suggested that Schönberg make a version for symphony orchestra - and the composer seems to have taken up the task with alacrity; the version for symphony orchestra (Op. 43b) must have been finished in October 1943." © Schott Music, Mainz / Universal Edition, Vienna.
