Problems have been known to occur in getting a piano-vocal score that is compatible with this new Breitkopf edition. Compatible piano-vocal scores do exist, but must be rented; allow plenty of time. (The problem is that the piano-vocal score from the new Breitkopf collected edition of Sibelius is
not the definitive version of the work, but rather an earlier iteration, intended more for scholars than for practical use.)
A 4th tp is indicated in 2 brief passages, but is a doubling, and probably the result of a hasty oversight.
