Navigation etc.

What appears to be Op.200 has been crossed out on the title page of the manuscript score. This could possibly date the composition to the early 1880s.

The autograph full score is undated, but of the hand-copied set of orchestral parts (stored @ GUF) some are marked with performance dates in 1882-84.

Movement titles differ slightly within the score than what is presented on the title cover. The tempi indications within the score are: 1) Alla Marcia. Allegro giocoso, 2) Allegro con molto di moto, 3) Andante espressivo, 4) Allegro con fuoco, 5) Vivace.

Starting midway through in the last movement, there is an unlabeled instrument in bass register written below the string section.
