| | relationships | unknown | No source names the licensee of GS1 company prefix 0022924; the barcode embeds the Teldec catalogue number 2292-44943-2, and the prefix also carries Erato and WEA catalogue numbers, so no gs1_prefix_owner edge is recorded. | |
| cd-eu-1991 | identity | disputed | Release date: Discogs gives 1991, Amazon.de 8 February 1991 and Amazon.com 12 March 1991 (search result), while MusicWeb International's survey gives the original CD as "TELDEC 2992-44943-2" of 1992. | ^musicweb |
| | images | unknown | No freely licensed cover picture: MusicBrainz holds no release with this barcode, so the Cover Art Archive has none. | |
| | identity | unknown | Whether Warner still sells this single CD; the recording is in Warner Classics' Masur Tchaikovsky box released 18 February 2022, and the record company that issued it was dissolved in 2002. | ^warner-box |
