Delibes Coppelia/Sylvia

[mpcgd]

Hello,

is there any chance that the parts to Coppelia and/or Sylvia (complete ballet) get online ?

Thanks !

Probably very little as they weren't included in the Orchestral Musicians set.

I'd rather have the complete full scores, as requested in another thread.

The full score for Coppélia was only first published from manuscript in the 70's by Kalmus as edited by William McDermott, which is still covered under copyright. A facsimilie or copyist's autograph manuscript may be available for rental from Heugel, although if it is, it'll most likely be marked to hell with decades of conductor's markings making it illegible.

Sylvia was engraved and published by Heugel in the 1880's as a symphonic suite, but the full score may not have ever been produced in engraved format. If actually available (again, via rental), it is most likely the scenario will be the same as the score to Pierné's Cydalise et le chèvre-pied, which is to say the autograph mixed with engravings from the suite.

A new typeset by Paulsson of the full sore and the parts of Coppelia are now available.
