Shostakovich Quartets

Post by drurylane5 »

Can anybody upload Shostakovich's quartets? if not all of them, then just the 3 and the 8th?

Shostakovich is still protected around the world, so no.

I do not understand how can a majority of works by Prokofiev be PD, and by Shostakovich not, at least some earlier works...

Prokofiev died 1953, so in Canada (where copyright is life+50 years), all works pulished before his death are out of copyright there. Shostakovich died 1975...

Any Shostakovich that was published before 1923 is (I think) PD in the US, but IMSLP doesn't (as of now or the near future anyway) host such files.
