G.Verdi Un ballo in maschera full score; Puccini full scores

[ilynov]

Hello Everyone! I am looking for this full score. Would anyone be so kind to post it if he or she has one? Thank you in advance!

Also - I have the Dover full scores for Puccini's Madama Butterflu, La Bohème. Would it be ok if I scan post them at imslp? (I also have the Turandot, but as far as I remember it is still under copyright, yes?)

The Dover is fine - don't waste your time on La Boheme - we already have that edition.

That's very generous, however before you decide to embark on the journey that is scanning opera, are you sure you know how best to scan music scores? I'd hate to see anyone upload 400 pages of color scans that are chopped off and skewed beyond recognition.

Dear Daphnis, I scan big full scores at 300 dpi b&w.
I also hate those huge poor quality jpegs...

this site has full opera scores. You can print it. But it's with orchestra. I don't know if that's what you want or not!

Please don't upload any more Variations project scores. Clearly, they don't know how to properly scan music, and trying to use these scores is more frustrating than productive.

I also do not like the Variations project. I think, they make such poor scans on purpose - copyrights etc.

But thank you VERY MUCH for this info! I would never visit Variations for the FULL score of Un Ballo.

By the way, the quality of THIS scan is QUITE good.
