URTEXT EDITION 
This "urtext" or "scholarly" (scientific) edition was published at least 25 years ago in the EU (or 20 years ago in Italy, before 1992 in the former USSR). Hence, the edition is public domain in its country of origin or a government publication. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum 'threshold of originality' to qualify for copyright as an 'adaptation'. They may not be public domain elsewhere. More information about this can be found here.

Misc. Comments

Performed in Weimar, late May 1884; perhaps earlier?

Date 1882 from manuscript, though dating cannot always be certain even from autograph manuscript (e.g. see Hiller E minor symphony op67, whose surviving manuscript has a date clearly written at a later date - post-publication even, in that case) ; publication date Hofmeister's Monatsbericht (1883), p.250 (possibly published elsewhere earlier).
