I figured that statement was just posturing. There are several pages of editorial content that I did not scan, including the page with that notice. The only additions they seem to have made to the original scores are new page numbers.

I'll probably upload the first song some time today.

I checked some Bizet songs out of the library. All the songs already have pages, but this edition has different keys and some very nice cover art. It's a photographic reproduction of an 1868 edition. From everything I understand about copyright from the FAQs, the pages that are facsimiles of the ori...

OK. Good that there's a best practice for this sort of thing. I will submit each song as its own PDF, but I don't think I will make a page for the collections themselves. I don't think they're that well known. I will include the cover, title page and table of contents on the first song in each colle...

Like you say, reprinting does nothing to the copyright, but I just noticed something interesting on some of the songs in volume one. The song Nocturne has an original copyright of 1896, but underneath it ...

Bump. I've just discovered Lilypond and would like to add my voice to this discussion. I'm also wondering if any decisions about this have shaken out since the last time this thread was active. IMO, the source for any Lilypond typesetting should be included with the PDF upload. Not including the sou...
