Notes |
|
This manuscript was presumably copied from
the autograph full score of the revised version (AF22m)
in the autumn of 1904. Mahler's annotations, and in particular, his
addition of rehearsal numbers in blue crayon, suggests that he used this copy
for the performances in Vienna on 29 January and 3 February 1905 and (less
certain) in Graz on 1 June 1905. The manuscript subsequently
functioned as the printer's copy for the first edition (PF2m1), the plate number
of which, 4465, has been
added on fol. 1r in red pencil; in the
bottom l.h. corner in pencil the annotations Verlag /
z. Stich. have also been added. For the annotations in the
top r.h. corner, see the facsimile
above (Fig. 1).
There is a pencil bar number above the first bar of each page.
Before Mahler divided the penultimate bar into two someone also counted and noted in pencil the number of bars
before, after and between the eleven rehearsal numbers:

Mahler's placing of
rehearsal numbers generally may well merit a special study, not
least for the insights it might offer on the evolution of his
rehearsal practices, but they have been omitted from
SWXIV/2
and
NKGXIV/2. |
