Notes |
| |
Although this 33-bar sketch appears on the conjugate leaf that
originally formed the back wrapper of the autograph of the Piano
Quartet movement in A minor, the distant tonal relationship
between the two movements makes it very unlikely that they were
intended for the same multi-movement work. If either of these
works was eventually completed it is possible that it was the
work entered (unsuccesfully) by Mahler in 1877 for the
competition organised by the
St Petersburg Society for Chamber Music in 1877.
The score of his entry was not returned. |
