Copland Symphony for Organ and Orchesra

Post by bryk.cycle »

I'm looking for a score to Copland's Symphony for Organ and Orchestra (not Symphony No. 1, specifically the original version with organ). It should be public domain, according to Boosey and Hawkes' website it was published in 1924, which puts it public domain in the US. I saw on the wishlist that there was an exception for the first symphony because of a copyright renewal, but I'm unsure if this also applies to the Organ Symphony. Thanks in advance!

The original version of Copland's First Symphony (Symphony for Organ and Orchestra) can be uploaded to IMSLP if a copy is found, while the reworked version (published 1931) can be uploaded next year.

Just make sure the original version is directly uploaded to the USA Server and not on the main server please!

Worldcat, anyway, doesn't seem to list anything symphony-shaped published earlier than 1931 (manuscript yes, but not publication). They do list the piano concerto (the latter WC 12124312 , at Buffalo Erie County Public Library, not circulating apparently; also St Pancras and Nat Lib Israel..., in 2-piano reduction) in ©1929 versions published by Cos Cob, it seems. (Most versions of the concerto turned up seem to be ©1956.) The concerto is ©1929 but most versions of it at libraries that aren't of later publication date are electronic versions circulated by the Classical Scores library, curious...

The Dance Symphony should also be uploadable next year (©1931).
