Stravinsky Oedipus Rex ⟨User:Fugalicious⟩ [#35345]

Hey Fugalicious

A user uploaded a Vocal Score of the 1948 edition (Copyright 1950 actually) but just like the Full Score on the page, the Latin Text by Jean Daniélou (1905-1974) would have to be redacted because of the changes made by the composer in the 1948 edition. Just an insight to the edition if your interested in redacting this, the engraving is basically the same as the 1927 original version (that version is PD-USA only) so it might not be worth doing this redacting on this since we have the original on the USA server. There is some minor changes that Stravinsky copyrighted here.

So i'll leave this up to you to decide if you would like to redact the text so we can have this version available without the Latin Text like all the redaction jobs you did for us prior. Otherwise we'll have to wait until we have the new Life + 50 server by 2025 when Daniélou will go PD there.

If your also willing to redact this, a processing of the images through Scantailor wouldn't be a bad idea either...

Hey Sallen, so I'm trying to understand what you're saying here — someone uploaded the 1948 edition of this, which has small changes from the earlier edition, and you're asking me to consider whether it's worth redacting the 1948 score the same way as I did the earlier text?

If that's right, my honest opinion is that I'd rather focus on other things I'm behind on, like the reorganization of the Bach scores or redacting the Chopin scores originally uploaded by Zhengjc. (I also have quite a few new scans of my own that I've been hoping to process and upload, mostly for January 1 next year.)

Thanks nonetheless for bringing this to my attention. Let me know if there was anything I've misunderstood here – thanks!

All you would have to remove is the Latin Text, its basically more or less the same score as the 1927 edition, but its probably not worth removing it anyways.
