IMSLP Forums

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.

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?

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?

you mean "friendlily invited". I've been waiting a long time to pull the grammar police card on that one. look it up if you dont believe me.

"Leo" says "friendly invited"

[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]

"Cordially invited" is probably the most-used English phrase for this.

Thank you all for keeping this thread alive.
