The album is kept in the Heinrich-Heine-Institut Düsseldorf (shelfmark HHI.AUT.35.G.225). It has been digitised by CSMC as part of the project ‘Creating Music Albums as Originals Made of Originals’. The manuscript measures 24,5 × 19 cm (landscape) and contains I, 87, I folios. It belonged to the cellist, composer, and conductor (August Wilhelm) Julius Rietz (28 December 1812–12 September 1877).
When paginating the manuscript, one page (after p. 8, fol. 6) was not counted probably by mistake. The digital copy provided here therefore uses its own numbering.
