Miguel del Aguila Toccata Piano Solo

Post by mopcoup76 »

Does anyone have a digital version of "Toccata - Piano Solo" by Miguel del Aguila? I am desperate to find the score online for a class and do not have the time to wait for it to arrive in the mail. Thanks so much in advance!

He's a living composer, so cannot be posted here. You could contact the composer: https://migueldelaguila.com/music/

Music of Thomas "Blind Tom" Wiggins

Post by AFrench »

I recently became aware of the music of Thomas Wiggins. I have found some of his music on IMSLP, but not Rêve Charmant. I really want to learn this. Does anyone know some resources I might go to track this down? Here is a video on YouTube of the piece:

Thank you

Another piece from Thomas 'Blind Tom' Wiggins (1849-1908) that isn't on IMSLP:

Thank you so much for the two Tom Wiggins pieces. Wow, old music is kinda hard to read. How did you find these pieces?

While TracyRoss supplied a copy of the nocturne, I got one by emailing someone who had recorded the work and they sent me a copy by return email. The other one I simply googled for 'Blind Tom Wiggins sheet music' and got a hit on the second page of results.

Published by Schirmer 1904 is as much as I could find.

It was also published in a volume of 6 pieces by Schirmer. Always worth approaching them for a archival copy - I have approached Schirmers several times in the past and their charges are quite reasonable. If you check WorldCat, various American libraries also hold copies. Did find an original for sale, but it was quite expensive ($50 + high postage costs).
