And I guess that the same applied for Fabien Sevitzky too? (since both of them passed away in 1967)

We need to see Leonidas Leonardi's orchestration uploaded imslp.org

Then it would be the same for the other composer.

By the way, the Bach / Alexandre Tansman BWV 538 orchestration seems to be available

After a period of slumber, what about the year 2018? Now it's officially the year 2018, after all
Can we finally see the exquisitely rare Leonidas Leonardi orchestration for Mussorgsky's Pictures from an Exhibition uploaded here at imslp.org?
https://www.lucksmusic.com/CatalogSymph ... Code=08431

http://imslp.org/wiki/Orchestrations_an ... ibition%27


Or, would it be possible to see Fabien Sevitzky orchestral transcriptions uploaded
Kreisler 'Praeludium and Allegro' - Sevitzky arranger / conductor
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5MAd6jAxSI
https://www.carlfischer.com/shop/praelu ... legro.html
Fritz Kreisler wrote a number of violin pieces which he initially passed off as the work of earlier composers, though he later came clean and admitted he'd composed them himself. One such piece was this 'Prelude and Allegro' in the style of Gaetano Pugnani, a celebrated 18th century violinist. In the 1940s, Fabien Sevitzky, a nephew of the great conductor Serge Koussevitzky, began making records with the Indianapolis Symphony, of which he was music director, and among them was his own splendid orchestration of this Kreisler piece. The upload heard here comes from an RCA Victor 78rpm disc, recorded in January 1942,



How about Herman Boessenroth's case?

Recently there was a Box-set released (by Scribendum Records) that shed light to Rene Leibowitz

Is it possible to see Leibowitz orchestral Transcriptions uploaded here at imslp or do we have to wait further?

Regarding transcriptions of Wagner’s Ride of the Valkyries, it may be of interest to know that I have arranged this work for two flutes, piano, and page-turner (who just happens also to be a dramatic soprano.) Near the end, the page-turner stands (while continuing to turn pages for the pianist) and sings Brunhilde’s war cry. One critic called the arrangement “delightful.”

I was just wondering, will we ever see a score for Bach / Rene Leibowitz : Toccata and Fugue BWV 565 and Passacaglia and Fugue BWV 582
https://www.eamdc.com/composers/rene-le ... n-d-minor/

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/820772726


And of course, another holy grail has been the score by Leonidas Leonardi's orchestration for Pictures at an Exhibition. Long overdue...

Last but not least, the Kreisler / Fabien Sevitzky : Präludium and Allegro

DBMiller kindly uploaded Casella's orchestration for J.S. Bach's Chaconne.
https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Casella ... 6361201e6b

It seems like we will have to wait until Piupianissimo updates his BNFScanDownload program, so that it can download again from the NYPhil archives.





Apropos, a couple more orchestral transcriptions/orchestrations that have been long overdue to appear here:
