Piano Concerto No.3, Op.60 (Medtner, Nikolay)

It is very unlikely that this work is public domain in the EU, or in any country where the copyright term is life-plus-70 years. However, it is in the public domain in Canada (where IMSLP is hosted) and other countries where the term is life-plus-50 years (such as China, Japan, Korea and many others worldwide). As this work was first published before 1928 or failed to meet notice or renewal requirements to secure statutory copyright with no "restoration" under the GATT amendments, it is very likely to be public domain in the USA as well.

Please obey the copyright laws of your country. IMSLP does not assume any sort of legal responsibility or liability for the consequences of downloading files that are not in the public domain in your country.

Premiere information from Hyperion Records and from Martyn ("Nicolas Medtner: His Life and Music", p.126.)

According to Martyn (p.240) the main theme was composed in 1898. Finished except for orchestration in February 1942; completely finished summer 1943. Somewhat inspired by the ballad Rusalka (Lermontov).
