Here's a translation of the second letter: Dear Sir, I am replying to your email, in which you indicate that you are not the hoster of the works of Sergei PROKOFIEV offered for free download on your website. As you know, under the applicable law, the publisher of a website is responsible for the ill...

Here's a translation of the first French letter: Dear Sir / Madam, I am the lawyer of Sergei PROKOFIEV's heirs, who were surprised to find that you are offering scores of works by Sergei PROKOFIEV for free on your website accessible at http://www.imslp.org. While it is indisputable that your company...

All right!

Thank you.

Hello! I have found three 4-part fuges that Ravel composed for the Prix de Rome . They date from 1900-1905. They are written in four staves, they have no phrasings nor dynamics, the engraving style seems to date from the 1970s, the tiltles are in French and there are no plate numbers. Daphnis told m...

And Thank you.

Well, then I will link the work page to Fundación Albéniz

All right.

Thank you!

Hello again! I have come across some typesets of the first and second cahiers of Albéniz's Iberia. As the scans we have at the moment are horrible, I think it would be great to have a better version of that work. The thing is that they have been edited by a Luis Fernando Pérez, who is obviously aliv...

Hello! I am thinking of scanning Julius Caloff's transcription of the Hymn to the Sun , from Rimski-Korsakov's Opera Le Coq d'Or . The copyright notice is from 1922, but Chaloff died in 1979. Since I had a bad experience when my scans of Schubert's 3 Violin Sonatas were temporarily blocked (even tho...

Thanks for your answer! I have just uploaded Op.11.
Have a nice day!

Hello everybody! I have come across a PDF file with songs by Karol Szymanowski (1882-1937). Could anybody help me determine if they are suitable for upload? 1-- Op.11 : 1905 1st ed. (U.E.), poet died before 1923, translator was born in the 1860s. --> Clearly PD 2-- Op.17 : 1907 1st ed. (U.E.), one o...

Well! then I am going to finish my prélues. They will be uploaded tomorrow.

That's all! Goodbye.

As I said, I have already uploaded it: http://www.imslp.org/wiki/File:Op.18,_Allegro_de_Concert_(1896).pdf (it is the 3rd version) The file is not too big, but the original one (1st version) was smaller. However, it is not 50MB big (as it was before)! I am making all this in order to learn how to do...

Well, according to Adobe help, the program uses CCITT Group 4 encoding when saving monochrome images as a PDF without asking, so it cannot be that, but thank you for your interest!

Well, I have used Photoshop and has worked well. Thank you very much! The problem is that the PDF file has become fifteen times bigger. I have converted the images to TIFF and then back to PDF but it is still about 2.5 times the size it was originally. As now that size makes it uploadable to the IMS...
