Thread - Chopin nocturnes

Hi Fryderyka,

I'm the other person who submitted a scan of the Nocturnes by Chopin in the National Edition. I'm writing with three purposes.

First, I want to say that your scan looks terrific! I'm really happy someone is taking on the project of putting up the whole National Edition.

Second, I want to let you know that I already have a scan of the Études from Series A. So if you haven't scanned those already, I wanted to let you know you can avoid duplicating effort that I've taken on already, if you so wish.

Third, I wanted to note something about copyright. In my upload of the Nocturnes, I removed almost all the editorial fingerings because I thought they wouldn't be allowed. If you want to submit other volumes from this edition, it may be worth messaging Carolus or Sallen112 to double-check what they think about the permissibility of including editorial fingerings. None of us would want the scores you've so carefully put together to be taken down later. I'm also interested in the outcome of this, so if you end up looking into it, please let me know the result – it will affect which version of my scan of the Études I would post, as I already removed editorial fingerings from that, but I have the original scan too.

Thanks so much, and I'm looking forward to seeing your scans of other volumes from the National Edition on IMSLP in the coming years!
