Stravinsky Piano Sonata (1924) and Serenade (1925)

[Hsumann]

I have a scan of the first edition of Stravinsky Piano Sonata (sometimes seen as Sonate pour piano), composed 1924 and first published by Boosey on 1925, as stated in the scan. The article on Wikipedia has a reference to the first edition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Son ... te-Score-5.

The edition is edited by Albert Spalding, not sure if that changes anything? This is apparently how it was for the first edition.

That being said, I also have a scan of the Serenade in A, composed 1925 but I couldn't find any information on its publication date. The scanner removed the publication information. This one can probably wait unless someone can find definitive proof it was published in 1925.

Ok you can upload both and we'll take a look at the serenade one. Please be quick as we'll have to relock this in 1 day. Keep in mind, we do have a long time user who is planning on uploading a huge amount of new Stravinsky works on January 1st this coming year (hopefully he'll be around by then, well see).

I've finished the upload. You can re-lock it again!
Looking forward to 2022 (IMSLP's year of Stravinsky)

Good news and bad news, the Piano Sonata looks to be fair game in the USA, as it was first published that year. However bad news the Serenade looks like that was first published in 1926, which means its still under copyright for the next 6 months in the USA but won't matter as the composer itself will be PD-CA in the same amount of time. I think for now, we will hide this for download, but not delete the file as this will save us the work.

Not long now until Stravinsky is released from the Copyright Jail...

It is as I had suspected. Thanks for your help!
