Seconded! Especially happy to see more Mathias pieces.

A simple request.... Saint Sean's Toccata from Op 72 (or the whole set, perhaps??)

THANK YOU in advance.

Saint-Saens Op.72 album is right here in IMSLP:

Thank you for Saint-Seans..... I should have think about ISMLP....

Does anyone have numbers 13-15 (13 for solo piano, 14 for solo organ, 15 for piano duet) of Charles Koechin's 15 Préludes, Op.209? The first 12 (for solo piano) have been circulating for a while (e.g., IMSLP) and have been recorded. Thanks.

Delighted that – after pointing out to the BnF a cataloguing error for the composer AND chasing them to upload the files – they have FINALLY, after several months, digitised the three works below by my elusive composer of the year/decade Émile Forgues (1823-1876):

Mélancolie:

Grande Valse artistique de concert, Op. 22:

Grande Tarentelle de Concert, Op. 6:
http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k856042m.r=.langFR

If some kind person could PDF these, I believe the French Piano Music thread will certainly be enriched!
