Re: Copyright Question
I may be wrong about this (and I'm sure there'll be further posts to put me right if I am), but my understanding is that the legality of an edition prepared for CPDL very much depends on the sources you are using. Arne's music, it goes without saying, is itself in the public domain, since the good d...

Re: Pieces I'm entranced by at the moment...
Well, I could quite easily gush about those two myself - perhaps I should put the Kellyk on my "to do" list, since I have a copy of its unique source somewhere. And not so much currently entranced, but having reached the realisation that if the trance lasts long enough the object has becom...

Re: Translation by committee
Oh dear, you were looking for elevated cultural discussion, rather than people banging on about their latest annoyances. Yes, point perhaps taken in this case. To answer your question, I'm not sure there is anything that would be considered off-subject for these forums, so long as it were broadly on...

Re: Translation by committee
There are not as many of these links as I'd thought - about 13, some on individual works pages, some on separate text/translation pages to which many individual pages link. Of these, 5 are biblical - mostly psalms but, in one case ( Factus est repente ), from the New Testament. The rest, I think, ar...

Re: Translation by committee
And, as I forgot to mention, none of the translations is of a remotely obscure original; they're either Biblical or from the Roman Missal or Breviary.

Translation by committee
All, Am I the only one (probably am - getting more & more crotchety ["quarter-notey" in US English] & intolerant as 50 approaches) to be very slightly annoyed by those links that appear on lots of works pages under the translations, saying "Translation supplied by The St. Ann ...

Re: About Isaac's Innsbruck
Alain, I would guess that in the original source(s) the two notes are untied, as in the latest edition by Norbert Lederbauer. You're surely not suggesting that some contributors would work from a modern edition, with all the copyright problems that might entail, rather than going back to the origina...

Re: The Pitch of Tudor Church Music
I would say that the work done by The Cardinall's Musick in their Fayrfax series and the earlier volumes of their Byrd makes a very persuasive case for performance more-or-less in the written key, and does away with (for example) a lot of those awkward baritone parts that go from c to f' or g'. To m...

Re: Works from the issues of Pierre Attaignant
Max, As far as I can see, Attaignant wasn't a composer at all - he isn't even mentioned in Grove, for example, although his publishing and printing activities earn him a brief mention in the Oxford Dictionary of Music. So perhaps not even that Tourdion should be attributed to him. So I suppose the p...

Thanks, Max - so I'll leave you with a few fewer anomalies and duplicates to reconcile by not posting any revisions for the moment.

Huge congratulations...
...to all involved in the migration - the site now seems to be working faster (at least on this side of the Atlantic) than ever before, even, if I remember right, in pre-Wiki days.
