Work comment

On the title page, the subtitle is "Fantasiestücke für das Pianoforte", whereas according to the first page of the printed music states "Tonbilder" [Tone images].

In movement no. 2, and probably erroneously, the marking 'Tempo I' appears one bar prior to what has been indicated above in the description of work section
