In the work, Janáček expresses his disapproval of the violent death of the young carpenter. He started to compose it immediately after the incident occurred and finished its composition in January 1906. The première took place on 27 January 1906 in Brno (Friends of the Arts Club), with Ludmila Tučková at the piano.March 2022 Janáček also wrote a third movement, a funeral march, which he cut out and burned shortly before the first public performance of the piece in 1906. He was not satisfied with the rest of the composition either and later tossed the manuscript of the two remaining movements into the river Vltava. He later commented with regret about his impulsive action: "And it floated along on the water that day, like white swans".Zahrádka (2005), p. IX The composition remained lost until 1924 (the year of Janáček's seventieth birthday), when Tučková announced that she owned a copy. The second performance took place on 23 November 1924 in Prague, under the title 1. X. 1905. Janáček later accompanied the work with the following inscription: The white marble of the steps of the Besední dům cs in Brno. The ordinary labourer František Pavlík falls, stained with blood. He came merely to champion higher learning and has been slain by cruel murderers.http://www.clearnote.net/The_Diary_of_One_Who_Vanished.html The Diary of One Who Vanished Clearnote.net 22 January 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20120623104521/http://www.clearnote.net/The_Diary_of_One_Who_Vanished.html 23 June 2012 dead The first authorized printed edition of the work was published in 1924 by the Hudební matice in Prague.Wingfield Paul Janácek Studies Paul Wingfield Cambridge University Press 2006 illustrated, reprint 26 978-0-521-02772-4 https://books.google.com/books?id=i16BMXnWl0wC 24 January 2010 The Dutch composer Theo Verbey made an orchestral version of 1.X.1905, which premiered on 9 May 2008 in Utrecht, the Netherlands, with the Dutch Radio Filharmonisch Orkest conducted by Claus Peter Flor.
