The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street
In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence.

(Mostly) Free Alkan sheet music for downloading
on: November 08, 2006, 08:42:25 PM
Sheetmusicarchives doesn't have any Alkan, and ever since seeing that Gibbons guy play that insane version of Allegro Barbaro on YouTube I've been searching for the sheets for it and found a rather large inventory of free Alkan music for downloading from a French site, figured y'all might be interested:

https://piano.francais.free.fr/alkan/04_partitions_en.html

There's a few that seem to be under copyright, but for the most part this site will supply it for free, or direct you to a site that will.

I started my digitalised Alkan Collection from that site a few years back.

It amuses me that people try to claim copyright on a composer that died 120 years ago.
