Beethoven Sonata 29 orchestration by Felix Weingartner

[Contratrombone64]

Hullo there, I'm after Felix Weingartner's orchestration (full score) of Beethoven's Sonata No. 29 (Hammerklavier) in B-flat major. I have the Naxos recording, which is fine despite being in Mono.

I see that the first publication date was 1926, which may potentially be a problem if it was renewed in the US and done so correctly. If this is the case, it may very well be under copyright and so blocked if uploaded here, unless you access IMSLP from the EU. Any how, a full score is out there and available and would be a welcome addition.

Hey Daphnis - I'm having a devil of a time finding this score anywhere, maybe I'm just not looking intelligently enough? Boolean searches scare me, I must 101 them ...

[daphnis]

I don't believe it is uploaded here, if that's what you mean.

[Contratrombone64]

No, meaning I'm having difficulty finding it anywhere ... period.

Not many libraries have it, but Schwerin Landesbibliothek even has the full set of parts

Unfortunately, still under copyright in the EU for about another 2 years (Weingartner 1863-1942)
