Additional info/contents	This new edition is based on the first edition published by Durand in 1881. The editions by David Whitwell (1979) and Timothy Reynish / Bruce Parry (1995) were also used. Obvious printing errors in the first edition have been corrected. The editors have made a few minor modifications concerning agogic and dynamics which serve practical purposes. For the part in A-flat major (bars 72 - 134), a slower time measure (poco meno mosso) was chosen, with a preceding "poco ritardando". An additional ritardando was notated at bar 125. The ambiguously defined "poco a poco crescendo e stringendo" from bar 231 onwards was transferred to tempo I at bar 296 (when the first theme is resumed), with a preceding ritardando. In order to make the fugal entries from bar 184 onwards appear clearly, the counterpoint was downgraded somewhat dynamically. The original instrumentation of the wind version included the following instruments: Piccolo Clarinet in E flat 1st/2nd clarinet in B flat Oboe Alto saxophone Tenor saxophone Baritone saxophone Cornets in Bb 1st/2nd/3rd/4th trumpet in E flat 1st/2nd/3rd trombone Saxhorn / Flugelhorn in Eb 1st/2nd flugelhorn in Bb 1st/2nd/3rd saxhorn / alto horn in E flat Baritone in Bb Euphonium in Bb Tuba in E flat Tuba in Bb Triangle Cymbal Snare drum Bass drum Tam Tam The instrumentation of the present edition has been adapted to today's standard wind band instrumentation and supplemented by bass clarinet, bassoon and double bass.
