I have just uploaded the incomplete score of a concerto of Quantz:
http://imslp.org/wiki/Concerto_in_E_min ... Joachim%29
Unfortionately two very important parts are missing: the solo voices. Originally there are two solo flutes or one solo flute and
a solo oboe. I added a remark, which I want to repeat here:
"All IMSLP-composers who are familiar with baroque music habits are friendly invited to reconstruct the missing parts."
An xml or cap or sib file could be provided, if necessary. Give a message on my discussion page.

Re: Composer wanted
Hi Notenschreiber,
I could do this. Is there any pay? I am a flutist and a composer, and I read Quantz book when I was 16 and really played the flute. I am working on a major project, but might be able to find time. Is there any pay?

Re: Composer wanted
I´m sorry, but this is just an appeal to the IMSLP community to provide the interested musicians with a complete version
of this interesting fragment. If somebody take it up, the result should be downloadable for free like all the other compositions
at IMSLP. so no money is involved.

Hi
OK - I may dabble in this when I have free time. But, gosh, this is like a doctoral project! Can somebody out there grant me a honorary doctorate if I finish it?

Re: Composer wanted

Re: Composer wanted
"Leo" says "friendly invited"
Re: Composer wanted
[tangent]'Friendly' is an adjective, not an adverb; it needs to be changed to an adverb in this case because it modifies the verb 'invited'. So you'd have to add the extra '-ly' ending to the original word to make 'friendlily', which is slightly awkward-sounding but very much grammatically correct. I think everyone knows what you meant, though [/tangent]Notenschreiber wrote:"Leo" says "friendly invited"

Re: Composer wanted
"Cordially invited" is probably the most-used English phrase for this.
