Misc. Notes Partially based on Liszt's transcription. YouTube recording This version is missing four bars: bar 104 (corresponding e.g. to figure D in the Wolff duet or bar 3 on page 10/11 in the Winkler duet) is followed by the fortissimo D minor theme 4 bars later, but in the other versions and also e.g. the Mandyczewski scores etc. this passage (lyrics: "Mein Sohn, mein Sohn, ich seh' es genau, es scheinen die alten Weiden so grau") is 8 bars.
