| In December 1877, while on a visit to Italy, Tchaikovsky translated the texts of five Italian arias by [[Mikhail Glinka]] ([[TH]] 340 ; [[ČW]] 664-668), which were to be published in a new edition by [[Pyotr Jurgenson]] <ref name="note1"/>. The arias were originally written by [[Glinka]] in 1828, also during a visit to Italy, but the original authors of the texts are unknown:
