1 Weinberger had been awarded the honorary title of "Kaiserlicher Rat" on February 2, 1903.

2 In 1904, Universal Edition issued scores of the F Minor Symphony, Op.12 (UE 1040), Aus Italien, Op.16 (UE 1044), Don Juan, Op.20 (UE 1061), Macbeth, Op.23 (UE 1075), Tod und Verklärung, Op.24 (UE 1078), Till Eulenspiegel, Op.28 (UE 1103), Also sprach Zarathustra, Op.30 (UE 1113), and Don Quixote, Op.35 (UE 1132).

See Diary OJ 1/5, p.19, September 13, 1906, for an arrangement whereby Doblinger were to supply Schenker with orchestral scores of Bruckner and Mahler ("for the sake of my library") free in return for work supplied.
