It's published by Alfreds and can be bought pretty much anywhere. Eg, here, here, here and here.

It is still under copyright.

hmm, yes, still under copyright.  :(

It's available, too,  for example at amazon.co.uk , Eurobuch.com (some specimen) , abebooks.com (published New York, New World Music (Harms), 1946) ,  on HathiTrust Digital Library (of course not free, it's from the UL Michigan) , The British Library (London: Chapell, 1955) ,  
and at https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/concerto-in-f-sheet-music/1582640

Cordially, 8_oct! ;)

How difficult is it?
Supremely. It is one if the most difficult transcriptions /realizations or solo piano i have seen.  All sorts of acrobatics involved.

Yes  so they would be the least of your worries. 
This is probably one of the reasons that the recording I own is the or one of the only ones of it thatched been done.  I almost made the foolish decision to take it oblast year but I realized the hundreds o hours it would take me aty current level and I cannot dedicate that muh time and focus to a single work at this time.

Awesome piece though.  I love the third movement the most
