It is unlikely that this work is public domain in the EU, or in any country where the copyright term is life+70 years. However, it is in the public domain in Canada (where IMSLP is hosted) and other countries where the term is life+50 years (like China, Japan, Korea and many others worldwide). As this work was first published before 1923, it is almost certainly public domain in the USA as well. |
