I have a vocal score of Giordano's ANDREA CHENIER I would like to upload, it has an English translation by "Tom Hammond" and I can find no information about him.
The edition is a reprint (by Well-Tempered Press) of (I think) a Sonzogno edition: https://search.worldcat.org/title/1298802287 although the engraving looks like Ricordi to me!
So since it's been reprinted here in the US (and also by Kalmus) I think it must at least be PD-US, but perhaps it might also be PD elsewhere.
It is a much clearer edition than what is currently on IMSLP.
Thanks for any help

Re: Translator: Tom Hammond?
Nope looks like Tom Hammond died after 1971 see here, which means if the edition was not simultaneously published with the USA within 30 days (meaning it has a USA city posted as one of the cites internationally speaking) since its published in 1959, then its URAA protected as a foreign work, meaning the copyright is restored and protected for 95 years now.
