Misc. Notes Colour scan. The finale in this manuscript seems to be the 1830 Presto (WoO 5,2), not the 1835 finale as claimed by the notes on the last page, so perhaps 1830-33 is more accurate... (This manuscript also - see discussion - uses Italian tempo headings for the most part rather than the German headers used in the published score.)

Misc. Notes scan: score scanned at 600dpi
filter: score filtered with 2-point algorithm explained in High Quality Scanning. I provide the original scanned version and the filtered, because the filter does some changes (smoothening, sharpening borders) and some portions of the scan get lost sometimes (when they are too small e.g.) - so you can choose your favorite. You may ask me for a manually cleaned version.
