Footnotes1 This item is transcribed and translated from a published book: The Enciclopedia universal ilustrada europeo-americana, an early 20th-century scholarly undertaking of immense proportions, was published in 72 volumes between 1908 and 1930; a ten-volume appendix appeared between 1930 and 1933, and thereafter annual supplements were issued. — The brief article on Schenker in the Enciclopedia universal was almost certainly based on that in the 9th (1919) or 10th (1922) edition of Hugo Riemanns Musiklexikon, edited by Alfred Einstein. Although it appears in a volume dating from 1927, Schenker seems not to have been aware of it until shortly before his death: he mentions it, as a postscript, in his last letter to Felix-Eberhard von Cube, vC51 (October 26, 1934). |
