252:. Bruch had sold the score to the publisher August Cranz outright for a small lump sum (250 Talers) - but he kept a copy of his own. At the end of World War I, he was destitute, having been unable to enforce the payment of royalties for his other works due to chaotic worldwide economic conditions. He sent the autograph to the Sutros, so that they could sell it in the United States and send him the money. Bruch died in October 1920, without ever receiving any money from the Sutro sisters. They had decided to keep the score themselves, but they claimed to have sold it, and sent Bruch's family some worthless German paper money as the alleged proceeds of the alleged sale.

The Sutros withdrew the concerto after the second performance and never played it again; they never played Bruch's original version at all. But they continued to make revisions to their version, amounting to thousands of changes, the last by
Ottilie as late as 1961 (Rose having died in 1957).

Ottilie died in
September 1970, aged 98, only three days before Rose's centenary. Some of her miscellaneous scores, manuscripts and newspaper cuttings were auctioned in January 1971. The pianist
