| Misc. Notes
|
This file is part of the Sibley Mirroring Project. Hrm. Looks like manuscript, but - maybe not, after all. Rather like some orchestral manuscripts (many autographs) in that not all the instruments are introduced from-the-start but rather - well- when they're introduced.

Vocal score reduced by Paul Hoffmann also published in 1911. Not called a fairy-tale-opera by the composer but the story it's based on has elements of this.
