Two letters from pianist and composer Artur Schnabel (1933) may be found in the folder of correspondence.

Addition, Box 1 This Arne Oldberg Papers addition is arranged in two folders. One consists of copies of various compositions of Arne Oldberg. The other is a collection of program notes from performances of his works by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra from 1908 to 1958.
