Navigation etc.
Entered into the composer's Tagebuch fur meine Compositionen (Aug. 30, 1825–Nov. 6, 1831) on sheets 34 verso and 35 recto for September, 1831. Hiller entered the following regarding the first two movements: "Allegro dazu umgearbeitet. Andante umgeschrieben". Apparently, this implies they had been either re-worked/re-written for inclusion in the symphony or written for the symphony and revised at this time.
