Navigation etc.

A confusing page: the 'complete [piano] score' has a single song, while BV 277 seems to be Altoums Gebet. "Konfutse, dir hab' ich geschworen" Op. 49 no. 1, for baritone and small orchestra, an aria from Turandot 1ii., a libretto apparently translated by Schiller from Gozzi's play. The page name might have to do with 2 Gedichte von Goethe (Busoni, Ferruccio), whose no. 1 is Unmut or Lied des Unmuts.
