Description

In the present edition, all three versions of the Impromptus for string orchestra appear: No. 5, early version of No. 5–6, and revised version of No. 5–6.

These Impromptus are arrangements of the impromptus for piano from Op. 5. The exact date for arranging the piano impromptus for string orchestra is presently not known, but it took place approximately in late 1893 or early 1894. Probably Sibelius first arranged only Impromptu No. 5 for string orchestra. No set of parts or information on any performances of No. 5 during Sibelius's lifetime survive. Perhaps Sibelius decided to combine Impromptus nos. 5 and 6 into an ABA form before performing No. 5. The combination, presumably the early version, was then premiered on 17 February 1894. At some point Sibelius made changes on the score and eventually faircopied the revision. of this revised version of No. 5–6, surviving as copyists' copies, only one autograph page survives as a photograph.

The main differences between the versions of No. 5–6 lie in the form, more precisely, in the repetitions. Both have the form of ABA and in the early version, the latter A corresponds to the first completely, whereas in the revised version, the repetition is shortened. Additionally, the revised version includes a repetition of the latter part of the B section.

Stylish and inexpensive
Color: Grey
Great watch. Came in quickly from seller. Got it sized at a local shop. It’s a pretty stylish watch for the price point. I don’t have big wrists but I still think the face could be a little bigger. But it’s pretty sleek and I’m happy

Certainly a great buy
Color: Grey
Why did you pick this product vs others?: It is a very well known and respected brand. Additionally, this particular watch is beautiful. I can not be happier. Value for money: Value for money is certainly great than with many other Swiss made watches. Accuracy: very good: -4 to +5 seconds per month.

Swiss Quality from a good brand
Color: Grey
This is my 4th Tissot watch. I only have a few quibbles. The band adjusts by removing wide or narrow pieces, not by adjusting with pins with a range of holes. I prefer that way to adjust a metal band. The color blue of the dial is darker in real life than the picture. I also wish the day indicator was a little larger (or my eyes were younger).

A LOT of watch for the money
Color: Grey
I purchased this piece with low expectations but was pleasantly surprised by the quality and overall esthetics. If you are a young man looking for your first watch that doesn’t break the bank, this is the one.
