I did check those sites although not Amazon, but most had very little Farjeon compared to the Sheet Music Warehouse - which Alfor is reasonably cheap compared to some of the German Antiquarian Music shops; Katzbichler probably being the most expensive, the average score often being 65-80 euros each !!!! You need big pockets to be a music score collector these days !

Yes, Sheetmusicwarehouse is mid-priced compared to Katzbichler & Co.

Do you know Heiner Rekeszus? He used to have a good stock of very rare Russian/Soviet scores - unfortunately also at rather unreasonable prices!

This Ireland piece doesn't seem to have been uploaded before.

Ireland's complete piano music has been made available again by Stainer & Bell.
I did not dare to upload more than a fraction of the works by this interesting composer,
because his music is not yet public domain.
(1962 plus 70 years = 2032...for those of us who will still live on this planet then...)

By 2032 I'm afraid I'll have given up the piano and (hopefully) taken up the harp.

I fear rather more of us will be dancing to the Ritual Fire Dance or the Firebird, do they have harpists in those scores?

Here's something I'm uploading to honour my footballing hero (JV).
The music itself is very elementary. I've taken the liberty of slightly
altering one of its titles.

Unfortunately, there still seem to be quite a few gaps in
the list of Dunhill's piano works available on the internet.
These two pieces are really good imo.
