Do not think Issac
Albeniz (1860-1909) needs any introduction.......here are three relatively rare pieces Op 95, 96 and the Romanza "Angustia".

The clue is in the Ashton thread and I could say that's it TOP SECRET but.....to put your mind at ease. Long before I discovered PP [and having a PC as well] I ran a 2nd hand sheet music company. During which time I made the acquaintance of Peter and Walter and we became a trio of collectors sharing a large number scores between us. So three individual collections became, in a way, one large shared collection, although we still maintained our own specialities. Our friend Walter died earlier this year, but Peter and I have remained as partners and good friends in collecting scores. He kindly scans a number of the scores - both from his collect and mine - and I do the frontsman bit in posting on PP [Peter is a member too] but always recognising the work he does. I do scan too, just in case you think I've got the easy job......but this allow us to cover more scores between us to share with members. I also do all the biography bits as well !! Also bear in mind I get lots of enquiries / issues from members about PP, which does take up a lot of my time [plus, the smooth running of PP takes a lot of work from my fantatsic team and me, as no doubt FredB, Rob and Co. would confirm] .....so Peter's involvement does mean that the flow of scores through me is fairly consistent.
So hopefully mystery solved.......and as ever......."thank you Mr P".

PS: And if you wonder why he doesn't post direct himself on PP ? It's because he's terribly shy, plus I chain him to the scanner every day so he can't get to his PC

Yes it is, but thought the image of Peter chained to a scanner would win him some sympathy......however, the electrified keyboard is rigged so he'll get 2000 volts if he attempts to access PP by himself.......plus, the ex-KGB security guards I employ keep a close eye on him for me and act as a further deterent [tazer guns are very painful I hear]. As the despotic, power-mad, psychotic owner of PP I can't grant him the freedom or authority to post scores !!!!! Whatever next......FredB !

Blame the government......not us poor, humble, downtrodden, and despised servants of the crown
Not that there will be many of us left when the Two C's have finished their extermination of public services. I suppose that will at least give me more time to scan in my retirement, and release Mr P from servitude [although secretly I think he likes his cold, dank room in the north-west tower of my mansion, and the malministrations from the guards]
