Sobranie Sochinenii, Tom II: Sochineniia dlia fortepiano
Moscow: Muzyka, 1959. Plate M. 27734 Г.URTEXT EDITION
This "urtext" or "scholarly" (scientific) edition is in the public domain because it was published at least 25 years ago for most of the EU (20 years ago in Italy, 30 years ago in Poland) over 25 years ago for the former USSR. Such editions are also public domain in Canada because they fail to meet the minimum 'threshold of originality' to qualify for copyright as an 'adaptation'. They may not be public domain elsewhere.

two slightly different editions, 1917 and 1922, appeared during the composer's lifetime; see Medtner.org.uk.
From Prokofiev's diaries, apparently after hearing the composer perform this: "excessively Medtnerish with nothing particularly new in it, but good all the same and I would like to play it myself." ("Sergey Prokofiev diaries, 1915-1923: behind the mask", Page 96.)
First performed 20 February 1915 O.S.? (I believe Martyn uses old style for Russian dates before 1918 by his own notes, so have converted above.)
