Extra Information
|
Work title is from the first edition from Collard, so Grande is an alternate spelling of Grand in this case. Most later editions use title Nocturne, Nocturne Pastorale, or similar. The second version (labeled B on this page) was heavily revised from the original by Liszt, but Hopkinson notes that the source of Liszt's revisions are unclear.
