Notes |
|
The first movement sketches probably all date from 1888.
According to Mahler's own account given to Natalie Bauer-Lechner
in April 1896 (NBL2,
50;
NBLE,
53), he was working on this movement at the time of the première
of Die drei Pintos (20 January 1888) and the orchestral
draft (OD1)
is dated 8 August 1888.
While working on the Andante in the summer of 1893 Mahler told
Natalie that he had drafted the two themes of the movement at
the time
he was conducting Die drei Pintos in Leipzig (i.e
January-April 1888) (NBL2,
25;
NBLE,
29) and some of the sketches in
this collection (S2.1) may date from that period.
The drafts of the Scherzo and perhaps some or all of those for
the Andante date from the summer of 1893: the
orchestral drafts,
OD3 and
OD2 were completed on 16 and 30 July 1893
respectively. |
