Hello, A student at the music school where I do clavichord lessons was preparing for a piano degree and was playing the Prelude and Fugue in D major from WTK I.

Hello, I'm actually looking for the full suite [de clavecin] by Petzold, not just the two minuets; the two minuets had been copied by Bach into the 2nd(?) Notebook for Anna Magdalena, which is indeed digitised. The other movements of the suite hadn't been copied by Bach and can be retrieved only fro...

Still, SBB_Metadaten.txt mentions the license is CC BY-NC-SA and SBB_Nutzungsbedingungen.txt says (based on Google Translate): The conditions of use for the digitized holdings of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin - PK correspond to the Creative Commons license "Attribution / Non-commercial / Share...

Hello, I'm planning to contribute a collection of 16 trio sonatas by C.P.E. Bach (http://digital.staatsbibliothek-berlin.de/werkansicht?PPN=PPN1019376961&PHYSID=PHYS_0001&DMDID=DMDLOG_0001). But when I download a .pdf containing the first sonata, it says the license is CC BY-NC-SA instead of...
