The Kurt Weill Newsletter
Published twice a year, the Kurt Weill Newsletter features articles and reviews (books, performances, recordings) that center on Kurt Weill but take a broader look at issues of twentieth-century music and theater. The Newsletter is distributed worldwide, and subscriptions are free. The editor welcomes the submission of articles, reviews, and news items for consideration. A variety of opinions are expressed in the Newsletter; they do not necessarily represent the publisher’s official viewpoint.
