A discussion of the events surrounding Heinrich Schenker's 60th birthday in June 1928, including a bookshop exhibition mounted in Duisburg, Germany, where Schenker's former pupil Felix-Eberhard von Cube taught music. The article includes transcriptions, translations, and extensive commentary for the exchange of letters between Cube and Schenker, central to which is a letter in which Schenker surveyed his life's fortunes (and misfortunes), and expressed them with particularly poignancy.
