 * *****COMMENTS***** =
 * "The tamer binary-form exercises for Lyadov's class did not go entirely to waste. Three turn up in Op.12..."- Nice, Prokofiev: From Russia to the West, 1891-1935, p.50.
 * Grove Music does not list an arrangement by Prokofiev of No.7 for harp, though it does list the 4-bassoon arrangement of No.9 as op.12bis. Thus, it is unknown who did this arrangement. The collection as originally published in 1914 mentioned it as being for either piano or harp, so the composer is likely the arranger by designating it this way.
