Piano score part different from instrument part - why?

If I have questions over the cello part I am playing (for a cello and piano piece) I often refer to the piano score. It always amazes me how different the cello part and the cello part in the piano score can be – apart from the obvious mistakes. The differences are not normally different notes or no...

Pierre Mellarde Details

Can anyone find out more information on Pierre Mellarde? Based on Worldcat he wrote half a dozen pieces of music published by Weekes & Co in London between 1907 and 1910. There is no one in the 1901 and 1911 census with that surname, which might suggest it is pseudonym. Sounds French, but seems ...

Kummer Cello Duets Op.22

I have a copy of the 3 cello duets Op.22 by F A Kummer (died 1879) edited by J Klengel (died 1933). This was published by IMC (plate 768) and was first issued in 1946. The typesetting is in the IMC house style. As I understand it, if I can show this is a reprint of an earlier edition published befor...

Re: Dates for Plate Numbers of form ‘Edition Schott No.XXXXX’

I was reminded of this post (which I started) when I uploaded a copy of Chants Russes (Lento) from Concerto Russe, Op.29 by Edouard Lalo. Already uploaded was a copy with plate number 'Edition Schott No.07171' My copy was from the same plates and had the Schott plate number 24247. So in making the l...

Re: Dates for Plate Numbers of form ‘Edition Schott No.XXXXX’

Thanks for the input, Generoso. I had looked at these numbers but discounted them – perhaps too readily. The dates don’t seem right. The transcriber was born in 1885. The sequence you suggest has number 09729 in 1907 when he was only 22. In the 23 years between 1907 and 1930 they used about 23000 fu...

Dates for Plate Numbers of form ‘Edition Schott No.XXXXX’

I have a transcription for cello and piano of a piece by Liszt - Angelus, Priere aux Anges Gardiens. The transcriber is Lothar Windsberger (1885 – 1935). So if published before 1923 (PD in US) it is public domain everywhere and worth uploading. The plate number is ‘Edition Schott No.06989’. This for...
