IMSLP Forums

Good morning.
I would like to give a look at Liszt 1838 transcriptions of Beethoven 5,6,7 symphonies.
I have looked around and no big publisher seems to have the 1838 version especially because the the 1865 version is the most used and printed.
The 5th and 6th were originally printed by Breitkopf & Härtel and the 7th by Tobias Haslinger
Thanks you all for your time.

We do not have any editions from 1838. However, we have digitized the 9th symphony, published in 1853 by B. Schott's Söhne. You can find it here: http://hdl.handle.net/1802/15795.

The first published version for Symphony No.6 has now been uploaded. I haven't been able to locate either of the other two symphonies online.

Was browsing the forums until coming upon this rather old post - fortunately I was able to find both just recently! I would just like to request someone to upload them as I am not too familiar

Symphony 5 463a was recently imported into Herzogin Anna Amalia Bibliothek (HAAB) Digital https://haab-digital.klassik-stiftung.d ... /LOG_0000/

Symphony 7 463d exists as an autograph manuscript in the Goethe-Schiller Archiv https://www.klassik-stiftung.de/goethe- ... es-archiv/ (Go to Bestand 60 "Liszt Noten" and search "U 57", I cannot link it directly as there's some timeout mechanism that allows you to browse the archive only through the above link) - I found this two weeks ago and copied it into MuseScore; it is uploaded to the MS website, if you'd like to check it out

I would like to suggest browsing HAAB and GSA - there are a lot of valuable Liszt scores (HAAB) and autograph manuscripts (GSA). Among those I've found are first editions of S. 137 and S. 140 (+revisions of 140/1 for 141), and corresponding manuscript revisions for S. 138 and S. 141, none of which are in IMSLP
