Journal Articles
Bieler, L. 1975, Hans Pfitzners Palestrina, Studies: an Irish Quarterly
Review 64, 66-73.
The article is an analysis of Pfitzners most famous work, the opera Palestrina.
Newson, J. 1971, Hans Pfitzner, a Traditionally German Composer, The
Quarterly Journal of the Library of Congress 28, 103-113.
The article explores cultural associations in Pfitzners work, as his influences,
using primary sources to paint a picture of the composer.
Steinberg, M.P. 2001, Opera and Cultural Analysis: The Case of Hans
Pfitzners Palestrina, The Music Quarterly 85, 53-62.
The work provides a culturally analytical view on Pfitzners best known work.
The conclusion is as follows: In this context, Palestrina becomes interpretable as a
German national and nationalist work that employs pro-Catholic strategy of the
imperial German Presence in Alsace in the 1890s. (Steinberg 2001, 62.)
Other
Abendroth, W. 1995, Reden, Schriften, Briefe von Hans Pfitzner, Munich.
The work is a collection of correspondences and other writings by Hans
Pfitzner, compiled by Abendroth. Besides the great wealth of primary sources that
gives the researcher an insight in Pfitzner as a person, rather than a composer, both
this work and the following work by Adamy offer the researcher to directly access
primary sources referenced in secondary literature.
Adamy. B. 1991, Hans Pfitzner: Briefe, Munich.
Like Abendroth, this collection by Adamy is a collection of letters by Pfitzner.
Anderson, David E. 1993, Review of Hans Pfitzner: Briefe; the Music of Hans Pfitzner, Notes 50
Music, 54347.

besides offering a critical note on two of the works used in this bibliography.
Pfitzner, H. 1941, Meine Liedertexten, Berlin.
A publication by Pfitzners own hand, the work explores Pfitzners use of
language in his works.
