The organ is the instrument on which the young Giacomo Puccini began his career as a musician. Through the rediscovery of a considerable number of hand-written pieces, which he composed after 1870 as part of his duties as organist in the churches of Lucca, several primary sources are now available. These give an insight into the beginnings of his musical activities which have only been known about from anecdotes from his first biographers until now. Puccini's organ repertoire includes works which were typical for liturgical organ music at that time: sonatas for the main sections of the mass, versets which were substituted for Gregorian chant, marches, which were played after the mass (exceptionally even waltzes), and even a pastorale for Christmas time. This music was written with the sound of instruments made in Tuscany in mind. These have just one manual, a 8 foot Principale register and a small pedalboard always coupled to the manual. In addition there were several solo stops divided into bass and soprano.Puccini contributed with originality to the renewal of Italian organ practice, which began in his day to discard its operatic style in favor of a style more suited to the liturgy.

Until 2014, the Scherzo in A minor was known only in a version for strings (SC 34) and its connection to the Trio in F major SC 52 was not documented. Newly found sources made it possible to identify Puccini's orchestral version of the Scherzo and to assert that in fact the Trio is conceived for the Scherzo. This edition corresponds to the first critical edition of the Scherzo in its original orchestral version and the first edition of the Trio in an orchestration completed by Virgilio Bernardoni. The Scherzo and the original versions of the Trio (Puccini's orchestration of the mm. 1-12 and the complete draft of the framework of the score) are included in the vol. II/1 of the Edizione Nazionale delle Opere di Giacomo Puccini (Works for orchestra, Carus 56.002).

As the second volume of the Edizione Nazionale delle Opere di Giacomo Puccini, a critical new edition of his compositions for orchestra has been published in the series Musical Works. In addition to the familiar Preludio a orchestra (SC 1), Preludio sinfonico (SC 32), Trio in Fa (SC 52) and Capriccio sinfonico (SC 55), the volume contains a short but unknown Adagetto (SC 51), probably a sketch of a composition from Puccini's student years in Milan. And, for the first time ever, it also includes an orchestral version of the Scherzo in La (SC 34) from 1882, a work which was just recently discovered. The Scherzo, known until now only in a version for string quartet, complements the Trio in Fa, which is scored for the same orchestral forces, to form an independent movement.

Judged by number of works, Giacomo Puccini left behind a relatively slender oeuvre . Nonetheless, the most popular of his operas as well as theminor piecespose some-times thorny bibliographical, editorial, and source-critical problems. The composer of La Boheme and Madama Butterfly constantly tinkered with his compositions, and the changes are reflected in a welter of conflicting printed editions. Dieter Schickling's detailed thematic catalogue brings order into this editor's nightmare while offering complete coverage of all of Puccini's music, including the surviving drafts. It is a standard reference work, not only for scholars and libraries throughout the world, but also for music antiquarians and autograph dealers.
