Misc. Notes This file is part of the Sibley Mirroring Project. This matches the wind band arrangement above, but is in the key of F instead of Eb; nevertheless, the result is that if the Bb instruments in the wind band arrangement are played at *concert* pitch, i.e. as if on a C instrument, they do match. It also matches parts of the Selection below (although here the keys change again). However, the tunes of all three do NOT appear to match those in the full score for the opera - including the Overture - nor the Overture recording at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjvrGbtsoF0 (which *does* match the full score)!
