I've expanded the posting I sent the other day into
a webpage: 'Chronological List of Works of Alois Haba':

http://www.ixpres.com/interval/monzo/haba/haba-worklist.htm

There was an error in the posting I originally sent here:
Haba's references to '12-tone' *do* mean Schoenberg's
'12-tone method', and not 72-tET. Haba used 24- and 36-tET
in several compositions, and wrote about those systems in
his 'magnum opus' _Neue Harmonielehre_ (published 1927),
and he did experiment a little with 31-tET after his contact
with Fokker, but apparently he did *not* use any other
microtonal systems.

Many thanks to Wim Hoogewerf for the info on recent
developments concerning Haba's work.
