Hi all, a few people have been using the very imperfect Google translation to try to pass messages back and forth with the Spanish user who has been submitting very useful typesets of Beethoven quartets and Mozart symphonies: http://imslp.org/wiki/User_talk:Jgjgjg The problem is the parts are – well...

{{Flat2}} double flat {{Sharp2}} double sharp {{GClef}}, {{CClef}}, {{FClef}}... guess :) Technical caveat: These five symbols use a separate part of the Unicode tablespace beginning at U+1D100, which may not be as well supported as the natural, sharp and flat signs, which are from the "miscell...

From what I've seen of the html coding for the table, I haven't noticed anything so far that shouldn't be impossible to implement using wiki formatting. Also, some time ago I brought over from Wikipedia a useful template to hide text {{hs}}, which effectively works around the issue of making numeric...

Yes, from an earlier edition published before 1923. I gather that the scores Daphnis has to upload are the critical edition scores, which would be subject to the laws on urtexts that carry shorter terms of copyright protection (i.e. maximum 30 years in the European Union). These scores however are s...

Hi Generoso, It does make a difference, since files uploaded to the Wiki aren't easily renamed. You've also created a chain of misnamed files with "3" actually being 6 and "6" which is actually 9. An admin like Feldmahler might be able to change it, but otherwise as a rank-and-fi...

Is this in aid of making your talk page even more unreadable than it is already?

Hi guys, noticed a few earlier parts submission that had slipped through without all of the logos having been removed: http://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ImagefromIndex/19290 Trumpets, page 2 http://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ImagefromIndex/20670 Violin I, page 3 (numbered 4) Would someone mind downloading, ...

Also, is this place slowly changing to PML, or is it going to continue to be IMSLP/PML?

No comment.

Glad you like it! A pity the Orff won't be available for some time yet, but I believe his rather wealthy and much younger widow enjoys receiving the cheques from Schott Music. One thing that particularly amuses me, where the rowdy drinking songs “in taberna” are concerned, is that there is clear wat...

Hi Reinhold, the normal convention adopted for all composers has been to split collections up into component works, usually as defined by the works catalogue (in the case of Schubert, Otto Erich Deutsch's : so although the book has 270 pages, it consists of 37 works (3 song cycles and 34 individual ...

I was doing Carmina Burana last year as one of the chorus masters and people were getting tetchy about discrepancies in the sung text between different scores, at which point I found the Melb. Uni library had a copy of the facsimile - number 522 of a limited circulation of 600 copies. After brandish...

In the next day or so I'll be going off-line for some time until several days into 2009, so have a good holiday and I'll catch you all next year. In the meantime for your enjoyment, I've uploaded facsimiles of the Codex buranus – the manuscript source, circa 1210–1230, for the texts of Carl Orff's &...

Oh well, in that case it can't be copied or uploaded. New typesets qualify for a limited term of protection under some laws even if they are a verbatim copy of an earlier publication.

Hi Peter, if access to the MIT Archive is re-established, may I ask one of those with access to do me a favour, and that is to obtain for me the scanned version of Havergal Brian, Complete Music for Solo Piano, published in 1985. Discussion with Mcroskell had indicated the entire volume was in the M...

Hi Yagan,

if you want Irony, have a look at pages 4 and 5 of the Universal Edition Winter 2007 Newsletter, linked here... :-)
