Notes

 

The arranger was Max Puttmann, who is identified in a pencil annotation on fol 1r; the pencil instructions are Stich Pariser formatΉ and Text aus der mittl. Ausgabe (i.e. it was to be in German only: the vocal part in the manuscript is untexted; see CV1t1 for a similar annotation).

The plate number (7445) was added in ink at the foot of fol. 1v and 2r, and suggests that the arrangement was probably prepared in late 1915 and this is confirmed by the dated set of proofs (PV4hpr); 75488 is noted in the r.h. margin on fol. 1r: it is probably a job number connected with the engraving and/or printing of this transposition, and also appears on the proofs. At some date the manuscript was folded twice along both its vertical and horizontal axes.
