Can't find Dohnányi's Capriccio (F Minor)

[ask_why]

Op. 28 No. 6

Does anyone know where I can get this sheet music?  Sheet Music Plus is the only store I've come across that even lists it, but it says "Usually leaves our warehouse: Within 3 to 4 weeks" and I'm guessing that means "we'll call you in 4 weeks and tell you we don't have it/aren't getting any more."

I'm guessing that means "we'll call you in 4 weeks and tell you we don't have it/aren't getting any more."

Generally that is what they mean.

Websites like Sheetmusicplus claim they have over 500,000 scores, but that could mean that they have 499,000 different Editions of Beethoven sonatas and a few greatest hits albums. A lot of times for out of print works, it is best to approach the publisher direct rather than wait 4 weeks for someone to tell you it is not available.

In this case, you dont need to as the score you require appears to be on IMSLP.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of going directly to the publisher.

Also, the only one I found in IMSLP says it won't be available for download until "next year" because the copyright status is unclear.  Am I looking at the wrong one, or is there some way around it?

Sorry, I did not look to see if it was blocked.

You can buy this very cheaply from Schotts.
