Has anyone got access to this medieval magister of polyphony (Perotin)? I noticed he was lacking from the medieval section and I would love to view any of his vocal scores. Thank you. [/i]

There are three of them at http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Perotin.

I have the Kalmus/Belwin Mills edition of the complete works of Perotin. However, it is a modern edition from around the 1970s or '80s, and thus presumably would still be under the copyright of the editor or publisher. Try contacting Belwin Mills to see if it's still in print.

Lyle,

as Kalmus/Belwin Mills is principally a reprint publisher, I strongly doubt that they produced the edition in the first place, and so the copyright status is possibly favourable in the US, at the least. The editorial contribution would thus be the most important information in assessing its suitability for inclusion in IMSLP: is there an editor's name given in the editorial notes to identify him/her?
