"Dear Mr. Deppe,

First of all, thank you for your letter concerning the 6th Jeunesse Festival, "Kurt Weill: Berlin - Paris - New York", which took place at the end of October.
We consider it an honor that you missed only the improvisational development of Weill's material in this recently completed Weill festival. As was stated not only in the Austrian media, this was certainly the most comprehensive Weill presentation held in Austria to date and we were naturally pleased by the recognition the festival received as far away as America.

Nevertheless we are realistic and realize that there are several remaining areas of Weill's work which we were not able to treat within the framework of this festival. In particular, due to time and, even more importantly, to budgetary factors, we were unable to give due emphasis to the importance of Weill's role as a genre-bridging catalyst. For your information, the situation was this: Wien Modern had just begun and the Konzerthaus General Secretary was constantly talking about budgetary restrictions (4 billion schillings), and as a result Jeunesse only received a 1,500,000 schilling subsidy for the Weill program. This being the case, I think you will understand how proud we were to have carried off the project at all. (Response by the Jeunesse managment to a letter from Renald Deppe.)

We have full understanding and have added a postscript by extending this invitation to these otherwise invaluable representatives of improvisional music." CH
