Hello Scriabinoff,

I tried posting a long reply three times, but PP spat me out three times.
I gave up.

Thanks for the posting

Strange. That must have been one hell of a reply. PP has a maximum message size of 60,000 characters

PS I can make it bigger if you wish...

Hi Fred Bouquet,

The reply wasn't THAT long - I don't think it was the length that caused the expectoration - some other glitch, - but still too long to remember and too tiresome to try and repeat for a fourth time.

as for the PS ... well who wouldn't wish for such endowments !!

regards,
tobyjj

I appreciate it and the extra effort, I am curious now as to what was in that reply but I am glad you enjoyed the upload and effort it took to get those volumes available

For Scriabinoff:

The more I translated, the less it felt like this really belonged in the Soviet thread, despite the fact that most composers were from countries that, in 1987, were still stuck in the eastern bloc. Anyhow...

Wow- I've been looking for the Petyrek Wurstelprater score since I heard it on the 1992 Husum CD. Thank you.

Many thanks for this and your efforts!

I hope you can help with this last one. If we need to migrate this thing back to the Russian thread (or name the appropriate home) we can do that too.

This volume is probably just fine here, especially since it contains about as much American material (Gershwin, Ellington, Berlin, Chaplin, 'Chattanooga Choo-Choo') as it does Soviet material. As far as I can tell, the Soviet composers it does contain (e.g. Tsfasman, Z. Kompaneets) are all 'light music' or popular composers, not quite as serious as the usual fare in the Russian/Soviet Composers thread.
