The style of the publication could indicate that it was published by Ellard, particularly as there are many other publications by Ellard in this volume. This original arrangement was published in 1825: 'The Waltz and Huntsman's Chorus, arranged as a Divertimento, for the Piano Forte!', by G. Kiallmark. Publication recorded in ‘The Quarterly Musical Magazine and Review’, 1825.
There is no title page. The following appears on the bottom of each page: Freischutz. (Kiall.k), but is not visible in the Huntsman's chorus due to repairs.
For piano.
Pages 2-5 are the Introduction which includes 'Waltzer'. The Huntsman's chorus pp.6-8. Missing page 9?
Newspaper has been used to repair this score. The pieces of newspaper are from England, possibly the London Times.
The Huntsman's chorus' has been extensively repaired with parts of a handwritten letter and blank paper.
'Miss Lee' is signed on the top right-hand corner of 'The Huntsman's chorus' and on the letter used to repair the top of the page.
Pencil annotations.
Bound in: 'Maria Lee volume of songs and music, circa 1820-1845.'
