Vigdorovich was an Ukrainian salon composer, who was born and died in Kyiv (alas I have no dates but clearly around 1890-1910).

I found a Ukrainian catalog with the following information: Vigdorovich, Lev (Leiba, Leon) Moiseovich (187- – 192-) – composer, violinist and violinist piano. Having started with the world-famous violinist and teacher Otakar Shevchik at Kievsky music school in 1886–90/91. Having written important salon music (65 opuses) for piano, violin and piano (div. advertising brochures for music publications). Yogo was called the meter of salon music. Living near Kiev at the address: Bohdan Khmelnitsky Square, 5

Quite amazing - many thanks Bingo and Crow for all the additonal information - duly added to my 'book'.

Very grateful to you both.

Interesting that the opuses go up to at least 83, more than listed in the biographical notes (suggests 65 opuses).

Hello,

I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask or not. Does anybody have any information about where it might be possible to purchase volumes from the Medtner collected works series in 12 volumes? I have managed to acquire a few volumes from various places (vols. 2, 4, 7, 8 & 9). They are extremely difficult to come by!

Kind regards

Simon

Have you tried Ruslania? Even if the store doesn't list a title on the website, the staff are quite helpful.

Also: are you interested in original edition prints, reprints or digital versions?

For reference: the volume contents listing: https://nikolaimedtner.ru/scores/

Thank you for your reply. I will try Ruslania. I am interested in original prints. Whilst they stock new scores, they may have some useful info.
