Notes and References
- ↑ Here Tchaikovsky is making a joke on Jurgenson's patronymic name, Pyotr Ivanovich.
- ↑ The first set of Children's Songs on Russian and Ukrainian Tunes by Mariya Mamontova, which Tchaikovsky had edited and harmonised. They were published by Jurgenson in August the same year.
