Pianophilia

Does anyone have copies of any of Wilhelm Peterson-Berger's piano music that isn't on IMSLP yet? I am particularly looking for "Glidande Skyar (Gliding Skies)", "6 Latar (6 Melodies)", and "Tonmalninger (Tone-Paintings)."

I actually have several requests to put out here. For a quite long time now, I've been looking for several of these pieces. None of them are currently on IMSLP, yet I've heard rumors that a few of them may be circulating on various internet websites (which I still haven't found ).

If anyone has scans (or is able to scan) a copy of any of these pieces, it would be much appreciated. I am a somewhat active editor on IMSLP , and I will not upload the score if you let me know (for any reason). Either way, I probably wouldn't upload it.

Here's the list. If there's any scores that you have which might interest me, I'd love if you'd post them as well.

Selim Palmgren:

• Piano:
  *Vår (Spring), Op.47 (Nos.2-4, 6)
  *Fog Figures, 3 Piano Pieces, Op.71
  *3 Fantasies, Op.82
  *Preludietto, Op.84 No.1
  *New Piano Sketches, Op.87
  *4 Piano Pieces, Op.88
  *Piano Concerto No.5, Op.99

Ludolf Nielsen:

• *Skovvandring (Forest Walk ; Woodland Ramble), Op.40
  *Symphony in C major, Op.22

Erkki Melartin:

• *Noli me tangere, Op.87 (complete, or at least Nos.3 and 4)
  *Lyrik II, Op.127

Jean Sibelius:

• *5 Esquisses (Sketches), Op.114

Heino Kaski:

• *Symphony, Op.16

Joonas Kokkonen:

• *Pielavesi, Suite for Piano

Aha! One I've been waiting to see for a little while now – someone somewhere must have an eye on my wishlist!

A decent scan from Gallica of Willmers' Sonate Heroïque, Op. 33:

Det samme, printer venlig (the same printer friendly):

4Candles & Alfor - thanks for this Willmers piece. Heroic sonata indeed. Alas, another great piece beyond my grasp to do justice to--my small hands can't reach all those 10ths.

Yes thanks for PDFing this Alfor!

I got this from Fazer a few years back and looking now, it is still cheaply available.

I have not looked for your other requests, but I would advise you check out the holdings at the FMIC (Finnish Music Information Centre).

My visits are usually wallet emptying but fruitful.

Hello Thal,

I did not expect to see you on here! Yes, that is one issue I have about ordering from FIMIC. I looked several of these pieces up on FIMIC, and either they are unlisted or not available from FIMIC directly. However, some Finnish websites (such as ostinato.fi) sell several of these pieces.

The only problem I have with some of these international websites is going through ordering prices, as well as simple costs. They tend to be quite inflated, and to make any orders, I've had to go through several third-parties.

All I'm hoping is that someone has a LEGAL scan or has access to a score to scan of one of the PD works on my long-sought-after list. I might just end up having to order from one of these websites.

Not sure if this has been pointed to before, but here is a nice collection of shorter pieces by Danish composers, held at The Royal Library of Denmark:

I am looking to purchase the score of Lars Roos' Cocktailgodis arrangements, which also appears under "17 Melodier." These are very nice arrangements and, even second hand, I would be happy to know where I may find a copy of them. Thank you to anyone that can help.
