Sorry, but the wiki will be offline most of the weekend for maintenance.

Hi 600dpi (nice name!), It appears to be a well-thought-out process for scanning and I'd imagine the results will be very good. I'll just add a couple of points. I'm assuming you know about setting the black and white threshold as that can really be the difference between a good and bad scan. Possib...

Sorry to be moving further off topic but I have to put a plug in here for my favorite version of Carmen--that by Spike Jones and his City Slickers! All done (to my knowledge) without the benefits of multi-track recording or any post-production editing. True virtuosos! http://youtu.be/T7u0ghPuaEE Enj...

Stez,

I've uploaded the unedited, color version. I would expect it to be available for downloading later this evening once it's been cleared by a copyright reviewer. I hope it proves to be helpful.

Kalliwoda, thanks for the link to the score on ThULB. I've uploaded the first edition to IMSLP in high resolution, black and white. The score on ThULB contained many handwritten annotations by some unknown performer. These have been mostly removed in the version I've posted but if they may be of use...

IMSLP currently has several Melartin manuscripts posted from the Sibelius Academy. Most of them are marked for copyright as V for Canada and either C or V for both the U.S. and the E.U. Most of the work pages have no first publication information (and I think there's still one that suggests the comp...

We have the composer's manuscript and not the 1993 publication posted. Would the manuscript be saddled with the same copyright restrictions as the 1993 publication? Would the fact that the work was first published in 1993 have any affect on the copyright status of the manuscript?

Thanks,
Cypressdome

Hi William! Forgive me for answering in reverse order. Can Irfanview convert color to monochrome? Yes, and no. http://imslp.org/wiki/IMSLP:Image_Conversion covers using Irfanview for batch conversion. One of the options would allow you to reduce the color depth to 2 colors (black and white). The pro...

Same thing here. Just updated from Firefox 8 to 9.0.1 and the navigation pane on the left side starts at the point where the pane on the right side ends. Must be a change of how Firefox is rendering the site's style sheet.

Having taken a look at the score it seems they have misidentified it as being Op.4 when it is actually No.4 from another work. Fortunately, we have that work: 4 Morceaux de Salon, Op.35. The cello and piano score as well as the alternate clarinet and viola parts are already there.

Not sure. It may be that the file isn't completely downloading to you from dLibra unless you force it to by viewing each page within the DjVu desktop application. You can try clicking on a page until the full view shows in the adjacent window,then move to the next page, etc., and then try exporting....

You're just one step away. The bottom link you posted should present you with a page asking you if you want to use the built-in applet or the browser plug-in. Choose browser plug-in and click "show content." That should take you to a screen with a text link for "browse publication.&qu...

Hi stelz! I've uploaded one score from there and WilliamBunting has now uploaded several. I'm not sure of his method but here's what I did. Download and install DjVuLIbre (includes both the desktop and plug-in) from http://djvu.sourceforge.net/index.html . I don't know about the browser plug-in but ...

Hi Sauret11,

I've just posted the full score of this work but I've been unable to find the piano score or violin part online. Hope someone else can.

True, but I was thinking ahead to Jan. 1, 2015 when Marx's PD-US scores would be transferred from the US to the Canadian server. If any of those people had outlived Marx the scores would have to be transferred back. If no information turns up on these people by this evening I'm uploading the scores ...
