It seems that this page includes many individual pieces, while this page includes the whole collection as if it were a single large work. Is this wrong?

Asymmetric keys are the trick. This is the Wikipedia article on the subject. In summary, at the beginning of a communication session each party sends to the other party its own public key. Public keys can be publicly distributed, as there is nothing secret inside them. The real secret is in the priv...

Works by this composer might be public domain in Canada if such works were "performed or delivered" at least once before copyright expired, i.e., before January 1st, 2002. Are there any information about performances, recordings, etc.?

In that case the score is included in this colection, although it seems that Martin Luther simply collected the melody of an older hymn, and the harmonization was done by others.

This is a list of settings by various composers that I found using the Multi-Site Search available on the CPDL website: Cantata - Christ lag in Todesbanden (Emoll) BWV 4 (Bach, Johann Sebastian) (IMSLP) Cantata BWV 4 - Christ lag in Todesbanden (Johann Sebastian Bach) (CPDL) Christ lag in Todesbande...

I would suggest the following:

- search using the most popular Russian search engine, Yandex;

- make a good scan of the score (not just a photo) and use the "search by image" function provided by most search engines, including Yandex.

The MediaWiki software (used by IMSLP but also by many other sites like Wikepedia) implements strict rules and features related to the traceability of the contents. In principle, one should be able to determine what were the contents of the whole website at any given time. Traceability is useful for...

As Choralia knows, I asked for CPDL's 501(c)(3) paperwork as reference a few months ago. I confirm. I was contacted on this subject as I'm a board member and the Chief Financial Officer of CPDL. I didn't mention this earlier as I didn't want to disclose something that IMSLP might have wanted to mai...

più o meno quanto bisogna aspettare per avere un riscontro? Dipende un po' dalla coda di edizioni da esaminare e dalla disponibilità di tempo dei copyright reviewers. In questo momento ci sono in coda una cinquantina di edizioni prima di quelle che hai caricato tu. Le tue potrebbero essere esaminat...

qualora non venissero accettati gli spartiti, loro li tengono e poi li postano appena caduto il copyright o devo aspettare io il momento per rispedirglieli? Conviene controllare che gli spartiti siano lasciati sul sito ma etichettati con [B], che significa che sono bloccati ma saranno resi pubblici...

Probably it was just a human error, anyway I'm checking with him. Just to confirm that it was a human error. The phpBB software used on these forums is a little bit tricky because a post may be deleted by mistake by clicking on the wrong button, and there is no command to revert the deletion then. ...

Ogni spartito caricato viene esaminato dai cosiddetti "copyright reviewers" prima di essere reso disponibile pubblicamente, quindi in generale nulla vieta di caricarli ed attendere il loro responso. Intanto fornisco la mia valutazione per alcuni di quelli proposti (valutazione che però i c...

I posted yesterday speculating on the likely outcome of recent changes in the access policy to IMSLP. While that post was online for a few hours, it has since disappeared from this forum. I checked on the moderation logs, and identified the moderator who deleted it. Probably it was just a human err...

Maybe, more important than the non-profit recognition and tax-exempt status, was that in 2008 the management of CPDL was transfered from the founder (alone) to a "transition group" with seven members (including the founder himself) that then drove the organization to the incorporation as a...

- Projekt bei einer Person: IMSLP hat in der Tat inzwischen einen Punkt erreicht, wo man überlegen muss, wie man das Ganze auf mehrere Personen verteilen kann. Nicht nur, daß es Wiki-basiert und damit automatisch ein Werk von vielen User ist, die in gewisser Weist auch ein Wörtchen mitzureden haben...
