However has the *orchestral parts* been published?

The year of 2010 is the 150th Anniversary of Debussy, and I am looking for a work for piano and orchestra by Debussy. I found he wrote the Fantasia for piano and orchestra http://imslp.org/wiki/Fantaisie_for_Piano_and_Orchestra_%28Debussy,_Claude%29 However where can I get the orchestral parts and p...

Hi,

Where can I find piano solo score for Liszt concerto No. 1 and No. 2? I mean the piano solo score that does *not* have *any* accompaniments included, because I would like to minimize page turns.

Thanks!

Hi,

I am looking for a 2-piano reduction score for Chopin piano concerto No.1 for practice purpose and get used to be play with accompaniment before rehearsing with the orchestra.

Could anyone scan a PD 2-piano reduction score for the Chopin piano concerto No. 1?

Thx......

Stefan von Hodula arranged "Variations on a Nursery Song" by Dohnanyi for two pianos and four hands. The 2-piano copy I have was published in 1929 by N Simrock. Dohnanyi's work will become PD in Canada. However when did Hodula die? If Hodula outlive Dohnanyi, this 2-piano arrangement will ...

Is it possible to get the full orchestra version of the Gershwin concert which is *not* edited by Campbell-Watson? This is the only way to get PD score

How about China? Nearly all of the SE Asia (incl China, Japan and Korea) have life + 50. The political environment in SE Asia is much less sympathetic to these copyright bastards. If you worry about press-freedom in mainland China, how about Hong Kong? It has very similar copyright laws as Canada ht...

As I said, This is why we need IMSLP-Canada to cater the bulk of composers who died *between* 50 and 70 years ago. For example, Dohnanyi will enter PD in Canada and 50+ country next year, but we will *not* be able to publish any of his post-1923 works without IMSLP-Canada, because these works would ...

I like the idea of IMSLP-USA and I am sure that it will work. To cater works that becomes PD in Canada but non-PD in USA and EU (the bulk of works between 50-70 yrs pma), we should set up an independent entity called IMSLP-Canada in a similar fashion as IMSLP-USA, that all activities (from admin to ...

Moving the corporate entity to Canada is not that simple at this stage. However, a separate IMSLP-US entity would be free to host items like Daphnis' Stravinsky catalog, plus a number of other works by composers not free in Canada (of course any composer not free in Canada will not be free in the E...

We can follow the same model as IMSLP-EU, and call this sister cooperative-entity IMSLP-USA, which is totally unaffiliated with IMSLP proper, and we copyright-review and refer scores to each other in the same way as the IMSLP-EU mechanism. However, since IMSLP proper is in USA at the moment, we will...

There have been a large number of users asking why certain files are being blocked from download despite the fact that they are a) public domain in Canada; and b) IMSLP is hosted in Canada and follows Canada's copyright laws. In each case, the files in question have a [TB] tag attached, which stand...

Has she tried learning the first movement of Appassionata? I believe that movement is more dark and passionate than the third movement, which is moreso a virtuoso ending. I would recommend some Rachmaninoff Preludes (op 23 no 5 and op 3 no 2 are the more famous ones) as well as some Liszt pieces. T...

Your orchestra sounds really like my orchestra, except that we have a few more strings - three first violins (incl concertmistress) and six seconds, and we had a horn and a trumpet. Then we had two flute, a clarinet and a bassoon. Don't worry. Most Baroque and early classical repertoire will be fine...

There's another wrinkle with some Gershwin works that is easily overlooked. Some were actually (partially) orchestrated by F. Campbell-Watson, who lived until 1980 and was duly credited as a contributor. While Gershwin may be free in countries with 50 and 70 pma terms, Campbell-Watson - the last su...
