Navigation etc.

There seem to be several references in 1864 journals to the suite not being new (last year's work) but until one can turn up a 1863 performance...

(confused somewhat by another - brief - reference in the 1880s to Op.113 in E minor- meaning Op.115 in E minor or Op.113 in D minor, or neither, one would like to know.)
