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.

| Misc. Notes

*E♭ clarinet part is the transposed part for today's D clarinet part (in the Clarinet 2 part). In this case, there is still only 3 clarinets + bass clarinet playing, not 4 clarinet parts playing.

Ernest Bloch Legacy

Navigation etc.
Bloch ended up composing several symphonies (some with title - "America", "Israel" - some without - Symphony in E-flat major, Symphony for Trombone and Orchestra, Sinfonia Breve - at least 6 ?)
It seems of all of them, this is the 2nd, as a first dating from around 1897 remains in manuscript (see Symphonie orientale, B.5.) The last, after the E-flat symphony, was left incomplete (it seems?...)
Possibly performed in Basel in 1903?
