Joint partner with his two brothers Dominik and Franz (sons of August Artaria, 1807‒93) of the music publishing of the firm Artaria at Kohlmarkt 9 in Vienna's first district. August was one of the original shareholders of Universal Edition, and as such his signature appears on the first list of shareholders (Zeichner-Liste) and also on some of Universal Edition's earliest letters.
Artaria and Schenker
In 1906 and 1907 the two men belonged to a circle of friends and acquaintances who attended concerts and discussed and argued over them afterwards, some of which occasions are recorded in Schenker's diary (September 30, December 18, 1906; September 14, November 6, 1907).
