Footnotes1 Possibly the lawyer Dr. Emil Wachsberg, whose offices were at Opernring 8 in the 1st district of Vienna (see Wiener Adreßbuch. Lehmanns Wohnungsanzeiger 1934, 75th year, vol. 1, p. 1441). 2 On September 25, 1934, the Austrian radio corporation (RAVAG), at Deutsch’s suggestion, organized a competition whereby a suitable text for an untexted Schubert song was sought. As the song was also unfinished, it was first completed by Schenker (see Otto Erich Deutsch, "Ein Preissauschreiben der RAVAG. Ein Schubert-Lied ohne Worte," Radio Wien, No. 52, September 21, 1934, 10th year, pp. 6, 13, 20). The competition was won by Prisca Maria Mader (see diary entry for November 20). Her winning text was published in Radio Wien under the pseudonym Mary Mahler; it was performed on the radio by Josef Hueber, with an introduction by Deutsch ("Ergebnis des Preisausschreibens: Ein Dichter zu einem unbekannten Schubertlied gesucht," Radio Wien, No. 9, November 23, 1934, 11th year, p. 48). |
