2 Cormac Newark mentions, in contrast to their mutual hostility, a collaboration between Berlioz and Castil-Blaze on Der Freischütz, but this episode is otherwise unknown; see Sadie, Stanley (ed.), The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, second edition, Vol. 5 (London: Macmillan, 2001): 263Google Scholar .

4 As her second aria opens Act III, Berlioz only had to follow it. Stolz sang it in F and Berlioz jumped by descending fifths, in two bars, from F to Ef for the reminiscence of Annette's Act II aria. The Schlesinger score begins there, as it did not include the lower transpositions.

Kern, in his indispensable Catalogue of the Works of Hector Berlioz (NBE vol. 25, 1987)Google Scholar , and in Bartoli, J.-P. and Reynaud, Cécile, eds, Dictionnaire Berlioz (Paris: Fayard, 2003): 381Google Scholar , anticipated that the Nocturne would appear in NBE 15. Holoman identified the MS (No. 31 in his catalogue), which is in Berlioz's hand, as an autograph of considerably later date than the ‘Recueil’.
