Thank you for this most excellent work! Yes, Lawrynowicz was the pianist that recorded the Fontana Nocturne, Op. 20. Please see this review for information regarding the extra disc on Fontana piano works Vol. 3:

Thank you again!

I do a lot of consultancy work for AP...so I'll ask about getting a copy of the Fontana Nocturne.

Further information - the person who found the Nocturne is currently writing a thesis on Fontana and at this stage has no plans to share further until his thesis is published. He will then consider publishing the work, possibly through Acte Prelable. I have asked to be notified as and when this happens.

Thanks for the information!

Ignacy Jan Paderewski (1860 – 1941) - hopefully needs no introduction. These pieces are available on IMSLP and probably on other score websites, but I did these for myself as they are much larger and cleaner copies than those currently circulating.

UPDATE ON FONTANA NOCTURNE:

I got a reply from Joanna:
"Unfortunately I do not have the score. I have just made the recording and
have forgot about it."

maybe it is just an average piece..

I thought my message about the Fontana Nocturne was fairly clear..........it is in private hands and they do NOT wish to share further at this stage ! Neither Jan or Joanne from Acte Prelable have access to the score [they mentioned you had written to them]. I know the owner of the manuscript and can assure you, they will not share.
