Probably published in 1870: see Simrock catalogue of 1870 (which lists the score, parts, and 4-hand reduction of the work as available) and information from RISM which seems to clinch this.

The autograph score is dedicated to Rudolph von Beckerath.

Date 4 September from Fifield. The November date in other sources was actually its second performance.
