There are few surviving accounts by Tchaikovsky concerning his ballet. None of Tchaikovsky's other stage works were subject to such changes and misrepresentation in productions as Swan Lake. Unfortunately, up to the present time it is still not possible to find materials which would show conclusively how the ballet was performed during the composer's lifetime. Some information can be gleaned by comparing posters from the first three productions of the ballet on the stage of the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow.

Judging by the list of dance numbers, Julius Reisinger did not introduce any significant changes to the full score. It is impossible to tell from the titles of the individual dances whether the music was authentic. Nevertheless, bearing in mind the history of the Pas de deux , we might suppose that at the first production the music was performed in accordance with the author's full score, apart from small changes in the order of numbers and, possibly, some cuts evidently a Pas de cinq and Pas de dix dances replaced the Pas de deux discussed above.

When the ballet was revived in , the choreographer Hansen took greater liberties with the score. It is not known whether he introduced new music, but in any case much of the music was cut, including the Pas de six in Act III.

At the time of the third production, in , Hansen introduced further changes, and added a new dance in Act III for the ballerina Lydia Geiten— Cosmopolitan , to music by Cesar Pugni, which had no relevance whatsoever to the ballet. This was the first production of a Russian ballet outside its native land, and it was repeated at the National Theatre a further seven times before the end of April [24]. Although the version of the ballet widely promulgated in the 20th century originated after the composer's death, it still played an important part in popularising Tchaikovsky's music and revealing the musical dramaturgy of his first ballet.

In the same year, Ivan Vsevolozhsky decided to produce the complete ballet, and asked Modest Tchaikovsky to rewrite the libretto [25].
