No, it isn't allowed since he died in 1967.

Apparently, Luck's Music Library is selling their scores.
Sheet Music Plus seems to be having Leonidas Leonardi's orchestration for Pictures at an Exhibition (for sale), but they don't seem to be shipping the product outside the States. Quite a bummer.

It is possible to add orchestrations by Leonidas Leonardi now (since his works are in the public domain in Canada). I'll look into adding them when I have time. Also, these are in the public domain in the US (although some of his later works may not be).

You can see we have the beginning of his works now, added here: https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Leonardi,_Leonidas

More can be added later...

Leonidas Leonardi's elusive and rare orchestral setting for Mussorgsky's 'Pictures at an Exhibition' has finally unveiled itself. :D
