Why would C-sharp be wrong in B major?

The problem is that the more time goes on the more is discovered as to when pieces were actually written so you get more and more convoluted trying to renumber things. The solution they arrived at was a compromise toward simplicity mixed with comfort. That said it's still pretty inconsistent in what...

For Tchaikovsky, I suggest using this site which will tell you exactly what the intended instrumentation is for a work, regardless of what was published. It's probably the most comprehensive and researched composer focused site out there

Sent you a PM.

I'm sure they simply thought it was a typo.

I wonder where the original user got it from. I mean, it's supposed to be completely lost so where did that page come from? Why is this not anywhere else that it can't be reuploaded?

I wouldn't necessarily trust that Wikipedia list. IIRC its current form was done by someone who tended to just make their own info. The list on here is likely more accurate: https://imslp.org/wiki/List_of_works_by_Maurice_Ravel That said, yeah it's wrong, and Ma Mere L'Oye should for sure be 60....t...

If something is in the public domain, and this is, then any 'policies' they might have are irrelevant. You're completely free to scan and upload it.

Well first off, the 70 year rule is for some countries. Others, including Canada where IMSLP is hosted, are 50. So if it's been 70 then it should have been PD as far as IMSLP is concered since the beginning. The 1926 publishing rule (or that is to say, 95 years ago) is for USA only, and death date d...

I just checked and the box set they released back in 2011 also has Hexameron as a and Pathetique as b.
So yeah, that seems to be correct.

It's for sure 365b, as per Leslie Howard's recording (and Howard is the one who did the current catalog).

Beethoven wrote two completed works called "Romance", both are for violin and orchestra. Not sure where you get the idea that he wrote 'several pieces' under that title. (There is a third violin and orchestra one that's lost, and a fragment of a multi-concerto.....so even then there should...

The fact they 'intended to make profit on it' has no bearing on if something is PD or not. The beauty of PD is that ANYONE is allowed to profit off it.

So this is a bit of a long shot. Years ago there was a website for the Johann Strauss Socierty of New York (At https://web.archive.org/web/20130415114034/http://straussusa.org/through the wayback machine). Now, one thing this website had is worklists for all members of the Strauss family ( https://w...

So on the page https://imslp.org/wiki/List_of_works_by_Zolt%C3%A1n_Kod%C3%A1ly the list is cataloged by 'K' number, claiming to be based on the book "Zoltán Kodály: A Guide to Research". Well, currently being in possession of said book and you can see for yourself in Google priview: https:...
