Clara Schumann Opus 22 Romances

Post by MarkThiel »

For the work:
Clara Schumann (1819-1896) Drei Romanzen fuer Violine und Klavier op. 22, first published 1855,
I have the Edition Breitkopf 8383 copyright 1983 by Breitkopf & Haertel, Wiesbaden

I am thinking that this can be scanned and put on imslp only with the disclaimers:

This “urtext” or “scholarly” (scientific) edition was published at least 25 years ago in Germany and thus is public domain in its country of origin. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum ‘threshold of originality’ to qualify for copyright as an ‘adaptation’. It may not be public domain elsewhere, however.
. . .
Public Domain - Non-PD US


Am I close to being correct on this ?
