19-tone studies

Re the Chicago MicroFest from Joel Mandelbaum:

Of course I would like to submit my 1961 19-tone studies, made for a similar
2-piano performance. The mapping is strange to me...but I’m sure my
Preludes can be adapted...and perhaps I’ll write a few new ones and either add them
or substitute them for already existing ones.

My shared notes were C#, D#, F#, G# and A#. His are C,D,E,G and A. If his
E were an F, I could simply transpose all my pieces down 1/19 octave. With
his preferred mapping, the transposition is a tritone, which would change the
basic character of every piece. Do you think it is too late to suggest that
tiny little change? Could you have him send me application forms,
information as to where to send score and performance copies?

Hi Johnny,

I see that Joel's address is attached--I'll contact him directly. In
the meantime, I want to reiterate that I'm going to do Jon's first
mapping, to accomodate Joel's pieces (the mapping with C-D-F-G-A)

Best,
Aaron.
