From Alfor "**sorry, Malcolm, for making public a major mistake in your directory of russian/soviet composers"
I'm sure there are many errors Alfred, much of the book was derived from various Russian publications, libraries etc. and can only be confirmed when either I locate a copy of the score, or someone posts a copy of the score [I've made many changes from material you've kindly posted]. It's one of the reasons why I keep it as an on-line source of data rather than look to see if I could get it published....this way, it can remain an organic and ever growing source of information for people.

Hi Malcolm.
hope you know that I was just joking. "op. 27" instead of "op. 26" of course is not a major mistake!! - One more soviet score at the moment: Lucija Garuta (selected piano works).
All best and a happy Whitsun!
Alfred

Thank you so much Alfor. The soviets are always great, and since I asked you if there were more to come, I've been really pleased with the last ones you uploaded.
Alfor, the Garuta collection is wonderful! The pieces in this volume are great fun to play and are written in an engaging harmonic idiom. I hope someone can translate the titles in this collection for us non-Russian speakers.
