Robert Forberg, n.d.[1972].

Publisher

Bad Godesburg: Robert Forberg, n.d.[1972].

Reprinted

Leipzig: Robert Forberg, 2008. Plate F. 95010.

Misc. Notes

See WorldCat for details. This edition appears to have been copied from Koussevitzky's original score as it preserves the original errors, thought it does not include the timpani part. It is not the later arrangement by Wolfgang Meyer-Tormin for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 3 clarinets, bass clarinet, 3 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani, and strings.

Manuscript, n.d.(ca.1905).

Misc. Notes

US Library of Congress has two versions of this manuscript, a facsimile that is heavily marked up by unknown hands and was distributed for performance, and this one - Koussevitzky's original copy. This score pre-dates the piano arrangement because there are a couple pages partly glued together between which you can see an earlier version of some measures. This score remained in Koussevitzky's personal possession until his death so it can be assumed the later markings are in his hand or with his approval.
