@ Jeffrie: the Magnatune position may interest you, and Courtney Love's June 2000 cry of rage. All I can do is support copyright reform but, until that happens, help keep IMSLP lawyer-proof.

Re: Advise on sharing

IMSLP should have nothing to do with your hard drive copy. Condemn first before knowing the facts? I"m a little shocked by your statement. I guess thinking the lesser of a man before knowing is the way now? I'm glad I'm not judgmental. Like I said, my friend was a collector of music.He died ne...

That looks like the Philips complete Mozart edition published 1990-1. (Amazon currently has one used copy for sale @ $3,688.88.) IMSLP should have nothing to do with your hard drive copy.

It sounds highly illegal to me.

That's the problem. Unless they're recordings from a provable out-of-copyright source, e.g. The European Archive, anyone placing them online could be in for a heap of trouble.

Yes, it's possible. What would you like it changed to? :)

Leo Ornstein, circa 1920, the second cello sonata. Bit of a heart-breaker.

Re: Twitter - imslp

If there are any moderators (wiki or forum) that want to help run it... Count me in. An IMSLP Twitter account would be dead easy to run - just tweet twice a week on some interesting score that's been uploaded, or some hot debate on this forum. 2 tweets per week @ 30 seconds per tweet = 1 min per we...

Re: What are you listening to RIGHT NOW?

Catching up on Composer of the Week on BBC Radio 3: the underrated, mysterious, extraordinary, Jan Dismas Zelenka. Telemann was so impressed by his abilities that he was complicit in a plot to steal copies of his work. And none other than J.S.Bach spent much of his time in Leipzig trying to curry fa...

Re: IMSLP copyrighted scores being sold on eBay

it's really crappy that you have to fax it. Can't you use an electronic fax program? I used one all the time in the 1990s. You just type your letter/form, on your machine, save it to your hard drive, then pull up the fax program, load in the letter/form, fill in the fax number, and press the button...

Re: What are you listening to RIGHT NOW?

Johann Adam Reincken: Sonatas from Hortus Musicus. Lush. Dramatic. Heart-breaking. Fabulous bass lines. Most of Reincken is lost. Bach admired him greatly, possibly met him, and arranged several works from Hortus musicus (as BWV 954, 965 and 966).
