It's not public domain. Waxman died in 1967 making it still under copyright in Canada and most of the world. From what I can tell, it was published in the late 40's and the piano reduction edited by Jascha Heifetz, so decidedly under copyright worldwide in this case.

i've looked into getting it. i think you have to get it from the waxman estate unfortunately...and it's somewhere around $60-80. :(

Is this for violin solo?

Why worry about the Waxman? Didn't Sarasate already write a "Carmen" fantasy long ago??? (Well, yes: op. 25, around 1883...)

:wink:

It's violin and orchestra. Of course, there's also a piano reduction.

And it's a nice piece, quite worthwhile (it was, after all, commissioned by Heifetz, who surely knew the Sarasate). There's hoards of other Carmen fantasies out there too...
