I also wrote about this issue in the work page discussion, so I'll try to condense matters here. The Kalmus score and parts, catalog A3175, are "authenticity uncertain", so there is an obvious interest in resolving the question of their provenance. Right now, this version is noted as "...

I went ahead and updated the new score, #925089, to restore the missing/erased text; compare PDF pages 21 (bottom) and 23 (top) in the other score, #562274.

I've possibly identified a very unusual issue with the new scan of the full score. The original color scan shows very faint text, which appears erased, at the end of book page 17 and the beginning of book page 19. A review of the Bruckner Online scan shows that these are instructions for an optional...

I messed up one of the file names - for file #925082, WAB108-Timpani-etc.pdf ought to be WAB108-1892-Timpani-etc.pdf by analogy with the other new files. I think we can't generally rename uploaded files, but since these files are still in review, if I could rename this file (or have it renamed by st...

Okay, everything is uploaded. I provided the original sources (in color) for reference. I used Scan Tailor (mostly) to convert the images to monochrome, as well as to set uniform page sizes. The threshold was a challenge to set; the one I used was a little darker than the default, but it seemed to b...

I'm just going by analogy with the Symphony No. 2; the amalgamation of the first and second versions for that page comes after all authentic editions.

Hi all, I have found scans of the complete performance material (score and parts) for this work in the 1892 first edition. (Currently, parts are supplied only in an amalgamation of the 1887 and 1890 versions.) But I have some questions about how to upload them and, by extension, about the current st...

Hello, In principle, of course, the entire Alte Gesamtausgabe of Anton Bruckner is already available on IMSLP. However, in an essay linked to on the Symphony No. 2 work page, Benjamin-Gunnar Cohrs mentions that Robert Haas prepared a critical report for the Symphony No. 2. Cohrs mentions that this c...

Unfortunately, when I try to use Scan Tailor 1.0.19, I get an error message - "The procedure entry point CreateDXGIFactory2 could not be located in the dynamic link library dxgi.dll." I'm assuming that this has to do with running an older version of Windows. Fortunately, the version of Sca...

Hi all,

I'm currently working on a color scan of a page of sheet music, to be converted to TIFF monochrome. But no matter what settings I choose for conversion (in Irfanview), I get something like the zoomed-in view of the provided image. What should I do to make the edges smoother?

An update regarding the scores (#563206/#562917): Both PDFs are reported as having been scanned by Bruckner Online. A check of the provided digitalization on that Web site indicates that the missing page is included there. Apparently it was simply overlooked in the preparation of the PDFs. But this ...

Parts #26350 and #38761-38772 are currently listed under the header Revised "Linz" and "Vienna" versions. However, a quick perusal of these parts clearly suggests that only one version of the First Symphony is represented, not two. If both versions were presented, one would expec...

Hi all, The first publication for this work is recorded as Simrock plate 4 (vocal score) and Simrock plate 1092 (full score). The former is already available, but the latter is not. I have found a copy of the Simrock full score, but when I tried to share it, I have been told "Error: This page h...
