The title is sometimes given as "Manfred, Symphony after Lord Byron". Are there differing versions on different scores? Schissel | Sound the Note! 21:19, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Going to have to look at the score

Is this a typo for "pastoral"?RayJohnstone (talk) 07:29, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Soviet version
