Guest Cynic Report post Posted June 20, 2009 I’m trying to track down the publishers and where to obtain the scores for the following pieces by Jacques-Nicolas Lemmens: Prélude à 5 parties (Grave) in E flat major Cantabile (Allegretto) in B minor Would be grateful for any ideas. J Could these movements be included in his Organ School? If so, I have a copy, deep in the mouldering heaps. Pierre will correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm afraid 19th century Belgian organ music is more than likely to be firmly out of print. I recently came across a reprint/reissue of Lemmens' excellent Triumphal March, it had been ruthlessly simplified by an editor. The only reason I could see for this was that [heavily modified] it would then become his copyright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pierre Lauwers 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2009 Here is a list featuring the original editions: http://users.belgacom.net/gc442020/lemmens...ex-lemmens.html ....With that, it is possible to commence to search. Free to download there is but few things save the "Fanfare"... I open a thread on the french forum about these scores. Pierre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One source is "Liber Organi: Selected pieces of the romantic period, Band 14", edited by Hermann J. Busch at Schott, ED 7509. Cheers tiratutti Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
