Navigation etc.

1864 - date from autograph orchestral score.

According to the March 1 1873 Monthly Musical Record, performed in the 15th Gewandhaus concert, Leipzig, January 30 1873 (and perhaps if not even probably earlier.) Still, a "ny ouverture" by Winding (if one reads right...) was given (in Copenhagen?? under Gade's direction, it seems) according to Illustreret tidende, volume 10, page 161 (1868). Might be this work.
