Misc. Notes Original images: ca.220dpi, color jpg files approx. 2200 by 2800 pixels. Editing: re-sampled to 600dpi, converted to black and white tif files, de-skewed, and set uniform margins. Blank pages inserted to facilitate duplex printing. Parts include separate cello and contrabass parts as well as a combined part. Oddly, separate parts appear for horns 1-4 showing "tacet" for the first movement, duplicating the second movement of the complete horn parts, and not listing the last two movements. No harp part.
