Misc. Notes:

How do the two Violin I parts differ? Also, should the parts be TB in the USA? They do not seem to be published "with the required notice", judging from the "n.d." marked here... (can't see past the TBlocks.)

Misc. Comments

Finale revised somewhat soon after completion (more or less attaching a reprise of the opening of the Vivace to the slow recall of themes from the first movement that had earlier closed the symphony. There may have been other changes also.)
