Könemann urtext

Post by Holicron »

Hi!

I have a fairly large amount of Könemann Music Budabest urtext editions and I'm wondering if these are OK to upload. I don't really understand how the "urtext rule" applies to Hungarian editions. There are no fingerings, comments or other editorial content apart from the pure notes on the pages.

I have for example from Johann Sebastian Bach:

Code: Select all

(c) 1993 - K 101 - Das wohltemperierte Klavier I
(c) 1993 - K 102 - Das wohltemperierte Klavier II
(c) 1994 - K 110 - Inventionen, Sinfonien, Kleine Präludien und Fughetten (see picture below)
(c) 1995 - K 111 - Englische Suiten
(c) 1995 - K 146 - Französische Suiten
(c) 1996 - K 167 - Klavierübung I
(c) 1996 - K 169 - Klavierübung  II + III + IV
(c) 1998 - K 170 - Toccaten
(c) 1999 - K 208 - Fantasien
(c) 2000 - K 171 - Konzertbearbeitungen
(c) 2001 - K 209 - Einzelstücke I

Hello,

If the edition was published at least 25 years ago (before 1999) we can accept those editions on here. As long as the composer died before 1971 (if the editions you want to add are not just only J.S. Bach). Any editions after 1998 will have to wait until we hit the year it goes eligible (1999 for 2025 for example), at least 25 years after publication.

Perfect, thanks for the quick reply!

It seems that most of the editions I have are then good to go. Time to get scanning... :D
