We cannot do that. This work would be copyright in Canada, the EU and possibly the US. Nothing by Cortot can be uploaded until at least 1 January 2013.

Most definitely copyrighted in the US. Plus it was written in French, so no translator could be PD either (unless they released it under a CC license). My suggestion would be to have a friend order it online, and then pay the friend back :)

Thanks guys, you're right and I think a friend ordering it online for me, would be a better idea.
