Many of those lithuanian works, inlucluding concertos by Vainiunas can be ordered here... http://www.mic.lt/en/home?PHPSESSID=39c ... 170e8af9d4

Sometimes they do not respond , but worth a try sometimes.

The Stasio Vainiuno Concerto no.3 is quite a work! Excellent orchestration and perfect balance between the piano. Elegant piano writing.

This certainly is an outstanding collection of little pieces!

Thank you Fleubis - I have duly amended my original list [and apologies for missing the Kairyukshtis].

Also re. copyright enquiries. Stravinsky is always going to be likely in copyright and thank you TimTin for raising this, although I would appreciate if any member has concerns on copyright to please, in all circumstances, notify a Moderator or myself first rather than post a message on PP. Messages may get missed, whereas contact with us means the team can investigate immediately and take appropriate action.

Alfor.......I am happy for you to leave this for a day or two but then please would you remove by Sunday evening [but thank you nonetheless for the posting].

Timtin......thank you for your observance on this matter, protecting us against copyright infringement is very important [since I'm the one likely to get fined or imprisoned :cry: ]. I have deleted your message following my comment above.

Posted as an example of the (early) piano style of this nearly forgotten Hungarian composer
(most of his life he lived in Paris and in the 1920s was one of the leading figures of modern music):
Tibor HARSANYI
Sonate (out-of-print)
Harsanyi Sonate.pdf
Alternative scan (had been posted by Caprotti quite a time ago):
Franz SCHUBERT (arr. Joh. Fr. Carl Dietrich)

Thank you for the HARSANYI sonata, Alfor. Here we have an interesting piece making every effort to be modern which seems especially noticeable in the frequently changing meters. Harsanyi clearly absorbed a lot of the musical whirlwind around him during that period in Paris.

Alfor,

When you tracked down and scanned the bagdonas piano concerto no.1. Did you ever by any chance found around there , any mention of its first performance?
He's two concertos has been recorded once on a tape, but the performers are unknown to me.
