Czerny - Grand Capriccio in C Minor Op. 173

Ries Ferdinand - Piano Sonata in A Minor Op. 1 No. 2

are you sure about the Czerny op.#? A search suggests that's the op# of his 3rd piano trio?


(which was published in or before 1829- see eg http://www.hofmeister.rhul.ac.uk/2008/c ... 01_0005_03. Richault published the grand capriccio as op.172 - the French National Library has it, don't know if they'd scan it though?... (http://catalogue.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/cb429302296)

Sibley Library has a copy of the Hofmeister first ed in their Czerny special collection box 18 (unscanned but maybe the librarians @ Sibley can check to see if it's in scannable condition?... I don't know if they ever do that for special collections but nothing-ventured etc)

ah apologizes. it is indeed his op 172. i just sent a request to sibley to see if its scannable so fingers crossed

okay so they havent responded and its been over a month so it looks like im just gonna have to hope someone is kind enough to locate and upload the sheet music for czerny's capriccio on here.

Well, since it was in their locked press it was probably a longshot. Wonder if there's some library I haven't thought to look for that has a less-damaged scannable copy they take free scanning requests for (as some libraries do ) Anyhow, luck!

(No reason to apologize above, by the way; I hope my response wasn't rude.)

Nah your post wasn't rude :p

Also to the ppl who pm'd me abt this, yes I used the request form but they still didnt respond. I sent a second one, so hopefully they respond this time. To be honest, I will probably just keep requesting this piece until I get a response because I'm really desperate to see the sheet music for this.

Well, when I search a library with this score or with Sevcik's Holka Modrooka or etc I repeatedly hit this situation: 1: Some library has it in its collection 2: this library offers online scores 3: But this one is not in the online collection. How to suggest this library to do the move?

For this one I found a copy at BNF: http://catalogue.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/cb429302296 I didn't find an English version, but on http://www.amisbnf.org/books.html you are welcome to make a donation to Gallica and the score you request will be scanned and appended to Gallica.

The Ries you requested is now available as of Sunday, by the way -

(Thanks, Cypressdome!)

Bless ty for the Ries ^^

And abt the french library, yeah i noticed they have the capriccio, but i wasnt sure how to navigate through it to get the score. im hoping if i cant get it from the other library, someone will be able to get it from the french library or have luck with the eastman library.

i have a few more requests in the meantime:

john field sonata in c moll. i know you guys have it but the current version is a bit iffy. i know theres a better version but i just cant find it :/

ernst richter sonata in c moll op 27

carl naumann sonata in c moll op 1

joseph street sonata in a moll op 17

johann baptist cramer sonata in a moll op 53 aka the 'l'ultima' and his sonata in e minor op 59

riem wilhelm frederich sonata in c moll op 4

Ernst Friedrich Richter (1808-79)- will add that to the IMSLP Wishlist N_R... will add the others to Wishlist pages I think, unless these are especially urgent requests. Not sure how this page differs from those if not in that... (though response time here too I know can be poor)

Who is Carl (Karl?) Naumann?
