Re: Anybody near a library posessing the "Old Schumann Edition"

[Fulvio Turra]

Is this the one you're looking for? http://www.amazon.com/Piano-Music-Robert-Schumann-Series/dp/0486214591

If so I've found libraries here in Italy owning the 3 book series but they're quite far away from where I live.

I might ask information for an inter-library loan if nobody else can help.
Best regards.

I wanted to get my hands on a volume of Clara Schumann's edition of Robert Schumann's works. Unfortunately I realized that we don't have this at all in my city.

Is there anybody having convenient access to a library that owns this edition (not the one revised by Wilhelm Kempff)?

It would be nice if someone could go there and do some measurements on one page (which we'd like to have for our "engraving challenges").

Urs -

It might help to be able to narrow your search. Try WorldCat <www.worldcat.org>. I did a search, and got multiple hits, some with just the Schumanns, not with Kempff, but I don't know which works you're looking for. Once you find the edition you want (and when you see the correct title, you can click on "all editions and formats"), you can see which libraries hold it. If you're not in a huge hurry, you could try interlibrary loan, or perhaps you could contact the library directly to try to get measurements. The one edition I looked at more closely had, under "Description", "1 score (183 p.) ; 31 cm." WorldCat lists libraries worldwide.

Best of luck,

Ralph
