Footnotes

1 Schenker’s letter to Waldheim-Eberle is not known to survive, and its writing is not recorded in Schenker’s diary, as is also the case with receipt of the current letter.

2 Artur Niloff [pseud. of Heinrich Schenker], Instrumentations-Tabelle, later published Vienna: Universal Edition, 1/1908, 9/1937. The Tabelle is made up of several separate components – diagrams, images, and letterpress; it seems likely that the layout of the components may be the task in hand here.
