Ives Concord Sonata

on: May 09, 2006, 04:42:39 AM

I know one should not request or post copyrighted music on pianoforum. Therefore I innocently ask, is the Concord Sonata of Charles Ives copyrighted? (Copywrit?)

Thanks for asking!

The revised edition from 1947 is definately under copyright.
I am not completely sure about the original version since I have no information on when it was published (around 1920-1925?) but it is under copyright in the EU and most other countries since Ives has not yet been dead for 70 years. In US it probably depends on if it was published before 1923 or not. $:-\$
