Re: O sole mio

Source: http://archiviostorico.corriere.it/2002/ottobre/09/grande_affare_sole_mio__co_0_0210092644.shtml da anni, lo spartito originale di 'O sole mio recava, tra gli autori, pure il nome di Alfredo Mazzucchi.

Re: Benedict's variations on Carnival of Venice

Thank you for the tips. When I started looking into this, I hadn't given much thought to whether I should use the TIFF files or the JPEG files with the highest resolution. I looked at both of them at a fairly high magnification with a browser, and they seemed to me to be of roughly comparable qualit...

Re: Benedict's variations on Carnival of Venice

.... The second question concerns the citation to the Library of Congress as the scanning institution. The library doesn't seem to provide downloadable PDFs, so I've downloaded them as JPEG files.

Both of these appear to be genuine folk songs, collected and arranged by Mario Foresi . When uploading I had intended to have them listed as arrangements by Foresi, rath...

Re: Failure to download Cottrau's passatempi musicali

Failure to download Cottrau's passatempi musicali

I have repeatedly attempted to download this pdf file without success. It is pointed to by the link labelled "almost complete scan" on this page . I have so far only tried to download it with an IPad. Safari simply fails to to download the file without giving any indication of error. Howev...
