Parts to 1930 version of Debussy's Nocturnes

[sbeckmesser]

Not that I want to be a spoiler, but at least some of the orchestral parts (the winds, in particular) posted for Debussy's Nocturnes for orchestra derive from a "new edition" published in 1930. I've posted on this at Score Requests:

While the original full score of Nocturnes (the only version posted at IMSLP) is definitely PD, it seems to me that the revised 1930 score (the version most often performed and recorded) might not be PD, at least not in the USA. Does this also mean that parts deriving from the 1930 score would also be protected?

That's interesting. The parts we posted are from a series which was scanned from parts issued by the reprint houses Kalmus and Lucks. Since they are obviously selling the revised parts, the claims made on the 1930 revision are evidently bogus.
