Hi,

According to me:

Roger,Kurt George, 1895-1966 ,Sonata pubblished by Francis,Day & Hunter,London,1948,plate ???
Non PD, anywhere (life+50 in Canada, life+70 in most EU countries, publication before 1923 for the US).

Ribari,Antal 1924-??? Sonata pubblished in 1960 by Editio Musica Budapest,plate Z 3387
Antal Ribari is still alive. Non PD, anywhere.

Perrotta,Vincenzo 1913?-??? Sonata pubblished by Ricordi 1938 plate 124298.
Same as above.

Cheers,

Matthieu

About Editio Musica Budapest I remember that Carolus said, more or less (about a Paganini album),all before 1980 is PD.
Is it true also if the composer is still alive?
Thank you

No; composers (who aren't employed by the government, which is essentially always the case) have normal copyright terms in all cases.

thank you very much

The 'government publication' only applies to editions of older works, not to original works published for the first time. Ditto for Muzika and Shostakovich, etc.

Thank you Carolus!
