There are many reasons that a lot of good music is buried in libraries. And when I say "good music" I mean music I would wish to be performed in public.

So I try to post scores, which are not only rare, but IMHO of a certain musical value.

Let's begin with a very fine example from the huge bulk of piano sonatas by soviet composers:

Yuri EGIKOV

Sonata No. 2

I leave it to my dear follow pianophilians to describe form and contents of this score!

P.S. all posted scores are my own scans.
Bio information on the composer: Igor Andreevich Egikov. Born 1936 in Baku. Azerbaijan composer. In 1954 graduated from the Azerbaikajn Conservatoire [piano] and continued studies in composition under Zeydman [graduated 1948]. He then transferred to the Gnesin Music Institute to continue his piano studies under Gnesin, as well as compositon with Peyko, and later between 1961-67 with Khachaturian. From 1959-61 worked at the Music & Drama School in Yakutsk, and then from 1962 moved and worked in Moscow. Piano works include:

Prelude-Tableaux (1952)
Variations (1956)
Piano Sonata No. 1 (1957)
Piano Sonata No. 2 (1963)
Suite "Gulliver's Strange Adventures" (1966)
Rondo Natasha

Ettore DESDERI

SONATINA in modo sincopato (this term just meaning Jazz and modern dances)
Desderi Sonatina.pdf
Ricardo PICK-MANGIAGALLI

Preludio e Toccata (this is all sunny Italy: a charming prelude and an easy-going perpetuum-mobile-like Toccata with a faint echo of Scarlatti)
Pick-Mangiagalli Preludio e Toccata.pdf
Goffredo PETRASSI

Toccata (much more modern, influenced by the old Italian masters of polyphony)

60 pages of

Musa MIRZOEV

Lyrical Sonata; Concert Scherzo, in a different edition called "Toccata"; Prelude & Fugue (...so you want write a fugue...); Etude-Toccata; Sonata capriccio

Much simpler in style than Yatsevich or Egikov (or Oborin)!

Hermann UNGER

Notturno 4 Fantasien für Klavier op. 28
Truly individual late-romantic pieces - good for recital, as Mr. H. would say.

Czech piano composers of the 20th century are equally "terra incognita" for most of us as are (most) soviet composers (...who can name others than Janacek and Martinu?!).

Both thumbs up for this interesting sonata by

Lubor BARTA

Once upon a time, when live in Czechoslovakia was still exciting, Jazz was cool and pipe-smoking even cooler, there was a young man, who composed two works "in glorification of the pipe and dedicated to all pipe-smokers": a symphony and a piano sonata.

Dalibor C. VACKAR
Smoking Sonata
Composed around 1935; 4 mvts.: Working day, Antique verse (quoting Horatius), Blues in blue, Keep smiling!
