Thanks Fred, but this score is on IMSLP already (which means I was aware of it's existence). I was trying to get a better quality score but thanks either way

I got a request for a book about Liszt this time, I would love to read the book:
Franz Liszt's music manuscripts in the national Széchényi Library, Budapest
This is the one I am looking for. Anyone got it?
This book is in the public domain (it was published in 1986).

The library references I've seen clearly place it as a copyrighted work. It's unlikely to enter the public domain for a long time unless the authors explicitly release it.

Is it? Maybe I am just not so familiar with copyright laws for books.

It's similar for all creative works, but the term differs across jurisdictions. Assume that you have to wait for 70 years after the last author's death. Wikipedia covers the nuance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain

It was co-authored by several people......but you can still buy the book (circa £45-55 through Amazon or other established book sellers) or try one of the many 2nd hand book sites (ABE Books has 3 copies available around £30 - see link). Last resort might be via Inter-library Loan ?

Oh, so it was the ‘you have to wait for 70 years after the last author's death’ part I was missing.

Semprini recorded an LP of Liszt favourites that included a Tarantelle that does not appear to correspond - even after Semprini's arrangement - to the popular Venezia e Napoli, or Liszt's arrangements of tarantellas after Auber, Cui and Dzhargomyzhsky.
The work sounds familiar (Alkan? Lecuona?) but could I suppose be a cheeky confabulation of Semprini:
The video owner doesn't know, and the LP sleeve notes don't help. https://www.discogs.com/release/8298630 ... lays-Liszt
[I've written this post three times now as it's gotten lost by pp in the course of both submitting and draft saving.

I know this tune from a pasta commercial. Don't think it's Liszt.
Probably some spiced up traditional. Pun intended.

That's a great lead.
So the popular tune is the Tarantelle Napolitana https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarantella_Napoletana which Rossini used and then Liszt re-transcribed as Rossini-Liszt - Soirées musicales, IX. La danza (Tarantella) S.424
