Hi Egknob, I think Emeraldimp meant whether or not you have gotten permission from the heir(s) of Glenn Gould (who own the copyright to the piece) to redistribute the scan... I understand that Gould has given permission for performing groups to reprint the score, but it might be problematic for IMSLP, since IMSLP is not a performing group... so I'm putting the page on Copyright Review, which means that if you can't provide permission from the author in a while I will have to remove the file :/

While I do not think the Gould estate would sue over this piece (it is reproduced by performing groups anyway), it still violates copyright laws unfortunately... --Feldmahler 22:06, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

Correction: Emeraldimp seems to have already put the page on Copyright Review... --Feldmahler 22:08, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

Oh! What I Did! =/ Am I in trouble? My intention was just improve, increase... Everybody knows Gould as a pianist, but his works are usually unknown.. I posted this file to share a great discover! An pearl! I think you understood what I mean, right? Egknob 22:29, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

Believe me, I understand completely... but unfortunately there are things in the world that don't work out :( Oh, and, you're not in trouble... I'll just remove the file and the page and you're fine :) --Feldmahler 22:34, 11 March 2007 (EDT)

Ooh, I know! We could start a performing group, and have people record their parts in all the separate corners of the world, and then put them together... Ok, so logistically, it's a nightmare, but a neat idea... ;-) And I hope I wasn't too harsh with this; I just want to protect IMSLP because it is such a great resource. --Emeraldimp 11:24, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

That would be interesting indeed ;) In fact, if what you proposed actually happened, IMSLP would be in the clear legally to redistribute the scan (seriously) :) It doesn't even have to be a group of IMSLP contributors; it can just be any single IMSLP contributor who is also part of a performing group that did a recording of that piece... --Feldmahler 11:37, 12 March 2007 (EDT)

Well... I have 4 friends (here in Porto Alegre, Brazil), 4 singers... (I study at UFRGS, "Bachelor Degree" in Piano(?) (i really don't know how to say it in english :P)) that will sing that with me in a Recital at the end of this year... we have to record it, and then I can put that here? I loved the idea, althought I think you have been kind of ironic..."harsh", hehe, never mind... My intention was share a music that is hardly heard at concert halls... but you can hear it on the "Glenn Gould - The Composer" CD. hehe everything is all right now, i suppose?

Actually, Emeraldimp has already contacted the Gould estate asking for permission (see here). It'd be much better if the Gould estate actually granted IMSLP permission! It'd really set a great example :) --Feldmahler 22:21, 12 March 2007 (EDT)
