Sheet Music Clara Schumann
on: November 05, 2016, 08:12:21 PM
I've searched-- a lot-- for Sonata in G Minor, IV Rondo. It's in Clara Schumann PianoWorks,
, at 14:06. Appreciate your advice if you know where I can get the sheet music.

Thanks
Janet

It was originally published in 1991;  therefore not in public domain unless you live outside the US.

Thanks for this but it's not the right one.That's the problem. It seems to be so difficult to find altho' the piece is performed (see above) as hers. It also seems to be mixed up with Robert's works.

you could look at contracting out the search. I would contact a music conservatory/university and see if you can talk to or write to a piano literature professor and see if the would be willing to help you locate it the work and what they might charge your either flat fee or hourly based on how long they spend attempting to source and leveraging their own and the university's library resources.

You might also contact circulation services and be referred to the inter-library loan lead and see if they can help you and if you might be able pay them for their time researching the matter and attempting to locate it for your and bring it in via I.L.L.S.

or some combo of the above, I don't think it would cost more than a couple hundred to few hundred dollars to pay 1 or 2 people for a few hours of work/each.  It might be cheaper to pay a good grad student and they tend to be pretty savvy at research and leveraging those resources.
