				The first movement sketches probably all date from 1888. 
				According to Mahler's own account given to Natalie Bauer-Lechner 
				in April 1896 (NBL2, 
				50;  
				NBLE, 
				53), he was working on this movement at the time of the première 
				of Die drei Pintos (20 January 1888) and the orchestral 
				draft (OD1) 
				is dated 8 August 1888. 
				 
				While working on the Andante in the summer of 1893 Mahler told 
				Natalie that he had drafted the two themes of the movement at 
				the time 
				he was conducting Die drei Pintos in Leipzig (i.e 
				January-April 1888) (NBL2, 
				25; 
				
				
				NBLE, 
				29) and some of the sketches in 
				this collection (S2.1) may date from that period. 
				The drafts of the Scherzo and perhaps some or all of those for 
				the Andante date from the summer of 1893: the 
				orchestral drafts,
				
				OD3 and
				
				OD2 were completed on 16 and 30 July 1893 
				respectively. |
