On January 21, 2011 daphnis wrote: It was first published in the orchestral form in 1961, which means it is copyright everywhere, and hence why I did not upload it in my Sibelius complete works project. (viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3212&p=23212#p23213). my emphasis.
This was absolutely true until 2012 since the Canadian Copyright Act stipulates that: (1) Subject to subsection (2), in the case of a literary, dramatic or musical work, or an engraving, in which copyright subsists at the date of the death of the author or, in the case of a work of joint authorship, at or immediately before the date of the death of the author who dies last, but which has not been published or, in the case of a lecture or a dramatic or musical work, been performed in public or communicated to the public by telecommunication, before that date, copyright shall subsist until publication, or performance in public or communication to the public by telecommunication, whichever may first happen, for the remainder of the calendar year of the publication or of the performance in public or communication to the public by telecommunication, as the case may be, and for a period of fifty years following the end of that calendar year.

Given that it is now in the Canadian public domain, it would be tremendous to add it to the library.
Kindly,
