On whose workpage do I upload A method for the piano-forte, by William Mason and E.S. Hoadly? Do I upload on William Mason's workpage since he was shown as the first author?

Thank you very much. You are absolutely correct. But 1746 that you saw was not the date of publication but rather the plate number. Actually in my original upload, I did not put in the date of publication and now, after your post ,I have added the date of publication as 1827 as stated in WorldCat.

I have uploaded the 4th grade book yesterday and 5th grade book today and I expected it to be in his books section ( I am almost certain that I uploaded the book on books section. ) But I found that it has been classed under ' collection' rather than under the book section. I am sure that the people...

Thank you very much for the information. I am really grateful for all your guidance and advice.

I am perplexed and I would be grateful if an administrator would kindly explain. Recently I have created a composer page 'Category:Bayer, Eduard' and uploaded 4 pieces ( originally from The Danish Royal Library). Today I checked ( without signing in ) to see whether I have uploaded all I have and, t...

Thank you for your advice. Much appreciated.

I could not find out anything about Bodstein, F. A . The only fact that I found out was that his book Pièces de société: pour la guitarre ; Oeuv. 19 was published by Bohm in 1830 , so I am sure his music is in PD, but since I could not find any fact about him, can I still upload them ?

Hi Davidov. Thank you for explaining and I now know that the admin who changed the name was just following IMSLP's policy . I would disagree with the policy regarding the vocal score. For the original Russian version, it is very appropriate to change the Russian name to English name. But the vocal s...

Thanks for the reply.But the name of the song has been given in English ,not French even if there is a language field that informs users that the scores include Russian and French text. If the vocal score is in English, you would not like it if someone has changed the name to French even if there is...

I have uploaded 3 songs a couple of days ago to 4 Romances, Op.41 (Rimsky-Korsakov) . The version I uploaded were the versions with French and Russian lyrics. Because of that I have supplied the French titles ( French translation of the titles), when I uploaded. But the administrator has changed the...

John Thompson's Easiest piano course is in PD in Canada. In the later publication of the book of the original 1955 The Wills Music Co, ), the original drawings were changed by the publisher ( publisher- International Music Publications Ltd, England ) but there is no mention of who made the new drawi...

Publisher- Chappell & Co ltd, London, The Wills Music Co.
John Thompson's works are PD in Canada.
Drawings by Frederick S Manning ( 1894- 1960)
There are some verses written by Katherine Faith. I could not find the dates for Katherine Faith. Please advise whether I can upload.

Thank you very much for the information.

Ascherberg, Hopwood & Crew It has both the English and the German lyrics written by Ed Sachs. I could not find the date of Ed Sachs ( there are Ed Sachs on Googling still alive which could not be him ) but since the book was published in 1910, I think it is in PD. Or it cannot be submitted until...

From the preface from the book I found out that that very little is known of him apart from the fact that he succeeded Stefano Carbonelli as the leader of the orchestra in the theatre at Drury Lane about 1730. The preface in the book also stated that there was an announcement of his death is found i...
