Blancafort - Notes D' Antany.pdf

Over ten years ago I spent a lot of time and a lot of money getting this and the other Blancafort pieces being posted so freely here. Suffice to say it's still under copyright.

Here's Jose Vianna da Motta's 2 Barcarolas, Op.1. They were hard to find.

Does anyone have any info on Isaac Albeniz's Piano Sonata No.2, Op.60?? I cant seem to find any recordings or scores.

Doesn't exist - see here:
https://www.gramophone.co.uk/review/alb ... no-sonatas

has anybody a better copy of this nice piece (with less annotations) ??
thanks

What piece ?

Scarlatti's Fandango
(here on page 7)

Does anybody know wether this is really by Domenico Scarlatti ?
Or by an Anonymus who wrote in the style of Sc. ?
Just curious • However it's nice to play.

This is a clean copy (nms).
According to Malcolm Boyd's 1986 book "Scarlatti, master of music" (p.191-192) the Fandango is genuine Scarlatti. The manuscript was discovered in 1984 on Tenerife. But maybe in later research there have been different views about the authenticity.

Thank you for the score and supplementary material. I was unaware of these works.
For the benefit of casual listeners, several people have already transcribed the Fandango on musescore: https://musescore.com/user/33877143/scores/6128064
If you follow links in score, you'll also find non-keyboard arrangements such as violins & contrabass.

The American music critic David Hurwitz has started a survey of Scarlatti Sonatas on his Youtube channel:

Does anyone have a decent edition of the Valses Poeticos by Granados?

Most IMSLP versions seem to have a large number of typos - missing accidentals, notes that are off by a third on the staff, missing 8va marks, missing "D.C." markings, etc. The Dover collection (with page numbers 110-123) is typical of this poor editing.

The earliest copy on IMSLP is from 1894 and is much cleaner, but it's also incomplete. It has a note that says "Contained preliminary version of valse no. 1~4 only."

I know there are editions by Kalamus and Salabert but haven't seen them.
