Navigation etc.

WorldCat has an edition dated 1850 that is for violin and orchestra; this seems to pre-date the piano edition.

It is Kistner's piano edition, with avec accompagnement d'orchestre on the title page.
And what is the source of the "WorldCat" date - which library? How secure does that library feel about that date? "Worldcat" doesn't date things, member libraries do, and they each date things different ways, which is a weetadbitofaproblem.

Also, Friedlein published a piano edition in 1856 - Monatsbericht (1856), p.934. (Knowing the plate of that one could be useful for the R. Friedlein table, so as well to mention it :)- ES)
