Given Isokani's editing I'm prepared to let this one through despite the fact that Bentzson's wsorks are still very much in copyright. However, I would please request that no more Bentzson be posted on PP.

Having initiated this thread I should perhaps contribute from time to time... . If you are interested in 4H versions of these pieces - they can be found at IMSLP, in the case of op.51 even by Brahms himself.
Enjoy!

These two Gurlitt pieces have been sitting around forever--now seems like a good time to scan and post them. First, the Rondo in E-flat, Op175 No2. Number three is available from Sibley (and IMSLP) at http://hdl.handle.net/1802/6559. If anyone has number one, please post same.

Second, a nice set of Eight Melodious Pieces, Op174.

I learned of this after reading a number of years ago from someone posting on another board looking for a version of this, someone responded that two versions were apparently published (but not available), this is one of them and the more modern of the two to my knowledge. I do not know a lot about Justin Ring, just that his name seems to pop up around Fats Waller, and that he played piano in a few jazz groups recordings and apparently may have had a hand in the recording and producing side of things around his time.

The famous "War Horse" (as it is puzzlingly called sometimes....), Chopin's "Heroic" Polonaise in A - Flat Major, Op. 53, Arranged 2P, 4H. Glad I can contribute a 'fresh' version of this classic.

Follow Up Request - Please see back matter for score sample, is a scan or the Fidelis Zitterbart Duo Concertante in F-Minor available? The little snipbit they give us here looks interesting.
