I would like to add my transcription of three of Nadia Boulanger's unpublished piano works, grouped together as "Trois pièces pour piano" by performer Lucy Mauro in her 2017 recording with Delos: https://outhere-music.com/en/albums/mad ... -boulanger . Given that the liner notes claim the work was originally written in 1914 and never published during the composer's lifetime, I think it would clearly fall in the public domain, at least for the U.S., as Boulanger died in 1979.

My transcription is mostly taken from a YouTube score read-along upload (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-rnd7KZzFo), though the source is not obviously listed, so I have no sense of its closeness to the urtext -- I noted a few (relatively minor) discrepancies between the video score and the performance, so I tended erred on the side of the performer.

My transcription was cleanly and proficiently done via MuseScore 4.3, though this would be my first contribution to IMSLP, so if there are any formatting or editorial guidelines that are expected, I am happy to adjust the printed score as needed.

Nope only works first published before 1931 are allowed for composers who died after 1975 uploaded onto the USA Server. Any unpublished works are only allowed for USA Status if the composer died more than 70 years ago, which this composer only died 47 years ago.

IMSLP is not like Youtube were we can just accept copyright content uploaded on here without permission, we adhere very closely to this rules as closely as possible between Canada, the USA, EU and Taiwan now.
