Scriabin Op. 11 Muzgiz

Post by musicbike »

I believe the score uploaded as Scriabin's Op. 11 Preludes, Muzgiz edition (1947), is not the Muzgiz edition. If this is an upload of the original Muzgiz edition, the initial page would not be in English and Russian footnotes should be found throughout the score. The Dover reprint of the Muzgiz in Engligh still includes footnotes and uses different headings for each Prelude. I do not know which edition is currently posted as Muzgiz, but it may not be within the 50 year copyright allowance.

The engraving does not look like Muzgiz. The titling means nothing as it's obviously a CDSM file added long after the original print - they use a generic English title in a Times font for everything and completely leave you in the dark as to what they scanned. I expect this is actually a reprint of the Belaieff. The Peters listed above it as a reprint of the Belaieff is actually a Peters-Belaieff reprint of the GDR Peters-Leipzig edited by Philipp (see below). Nice and confusing.
