Thread - List of Bertini compositions

Complete uniformity has hardly been required- the Baumfelder worklist is somewhat more detailed for example than others, and I'd like to see them all move in the direction of much more detail, with linked incipits etc. of the kinds you describe, not less, rather than the automated (and often very inaccurate, illegible, etc.) messes the best that can be said for which is that they may be better than nothing, which characterize a lot of the stopgap worklists we also have.

Hrm. Interesting about Op.154. I wonder if there's a digitized copy of the Lemoine (for which you provide a BNF link) at Gallica.bnf.fr, I'll have to check (maybe this weekend) and transfer/process/&c&c&c if so. Then we'll have both the 1844 Lemoine and the one-year-later Schott editions of the fantasy-waltz represented- they're probably not different, but they might be, slightly.

Links to entries in online catalogues- feeling rather sleepy but maybe I can help some there (well, if not now, maybe soon.) Is the problem that the catalogues that have these items seem to lack permanent links, or absence of catalogues containing these items in their collections at all?... (if you find it in Worldcat and doublecheck that Worldcat isn't mistaken about the mentioned target library having the item, you can probably just link to the WC OCLC number using the WC template...

sorry I haven't responded. Also, Worldcat links that don't point to any libraries - I have some guesses about that... Some libraries may once have been included in Worldcat and have been asked to be removed, maybe, which would explain that message (but can be accessed at their own catalogs - I know there are some libraries of which part, or even different parts, of that last guess (maybe all of them, then) are true... (For instance libraries that are now, at least, only partially if at all catalog-"covered"/mirrored by Worldcat - so that one does have to go to their own catalogs to find full info... and sometimes even subcatalogs, e.g. with ÖNB the main catalog is far less full of music than the Musiksammlung catalog, which it may take awhile for a music-fan to discover, and quite a discovery it is if one likes any Austrian music at all anyway... :D ... Czech library, Italian (opac SBN), others... - BNF main catalog seems pretty well "covered" and even integrates pretty well with Worldcat (I like that feature with the "see the entry at BNF" link (notice et côte ..., that is!) for BNF entries from Worldcat, which sometimes though not always has the côtage (plate number) also (very useful information...)

6th sextet- that's in Spanish. Looks like it was at BDH (Bibl. Dig. Hispánica - a lot of good digitizations there btw, have you searched for Bertini there? (Cypressdome did for Op.166, I see...) I'm doing so now... In fact, not a -bad- idea offhand to go to External library templates (category) and just run through them, searching for Bertini at each library, or at least each one that's remotely promising...) - I wonder if it's just a dropped and moved link that Worldcat hasn't caught up to, and if searching BDH itself will turn it up? That happens too! (Template:BDH on this site has the link.)

Oh, my, oh my. They have the 4th sextet op.114 in a downloadable piano duet arrangement (not the original, but it's -something-! :) :) ) at BDH. That already looks like a reason to be interested... (well, I might reupload it from their site myself. Always remember of course to snip off pages and/or page borders with copyright claims by the uploading library, things like that-- IMSLP considers it sufficient-and necessary- to give credit in the Scanner field (hopefully with a link to the specific page at the site, but that's not always easy- in the case of the piano sextet 4 arrangement, it would be {{BDH|bdh0000123436}} that would go in the scanner field, clicking on which would send you to the information page about the arrangement (or here's the link to view right now- BDH)

Anyhow, more later... sorry!
