On the first sheet of the score, on blank score lines in the middle is a dedicatory inscription by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, addressed to Vassily Yastrebtsev: “It’s been fifteen years since I began, as a joke and to amuse my capricious and whimsical mind, the opera "Snegurochka" -- February 27, 1895. / N.-R. Korsakov / To V.V. Yastrebtsev as a remembrance." The dedication refers to Spring's Aria and Recitative in the Prologue where Spring tells the story of Snegurochka's birth: "It’s been sixteen years since I began, as a joke and to amuse my capricious and whimsical mind, to flirt with Frost…" In the upper right corner of the first sheet, there is a gift inscription by Vassily Yastrebtsev's widow addressed to Georgy Rimsky-Korsakov, the composer's grandson: "To dear Georgy Mikhailovich Rimsky-Korsakov / as a memory of Vassily Vassilievich and a token / of our friendship E.
