The opinion of our copyright reviewers' vary. Compare e.g. Gian Francesco Malipiero (1882-1973) https://imslpforums.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10749 and Johann Philipp Hinnenthal (1883-1973) Kassel: Bärenreiter Verlag, 1960 https://imslp.org/wiki/12_Recorder_Sona ... _Baptiste)

Hello coulonnus,

The file in question (Hinnenthal edition has now been blocked. There are hundreds if not thousands of files which need to be updated with the right copyright tags.

In principle, these files cannot be uploaded onto IMSLP without the continuo realisations being removed first.

See the explanation by Sallen112 on the aforementioned forum page:

The continuo line must be just the bass line with the figured bass only.
Regards,
