Misc. Notes This file is from the MIT archive project.
Continuo part has been realised, articulations and dynamic markings have been added. In the Follia, the edition is generally good and quite similar to the "London: Preston & Son, n.d.(ca.1789)" and "London: Augener & Co., Nos.4936a-e, 1888-1891. Plate 9443" ones, but contains a certain number of errors: for instance, a missing DO at page 2, 6th measure, in the violin part.

Misc. Notes For full scores with realizations for keyboard: Despite not valid as Urtext, those scores are published in Mainz, New York and London simultaneously. No renewal record found for all of the editions.
In the USA this work is most likely in the public domain because no renewal was found after a thorough search of the Catalog of Copyright Entries and it was ineligible for "restoration" under GATT/TRIPS.

URTEXT EDITION [more...]

This is an urtext/critical/scholarly/scientific edition (or a simple re-engraving). Any commentary or critical apparatus, if protected by copyright, should not be included in the scan(s) available here.

In Canada, new editions/re-engravings of public domain works (when not including new original material) should be in the public domain due to failing to meet the threshold of originality. In most European Union countries, these editions (except new original material) are generally protected for no more than 25 years from publication (30 years in Poland), and only if the edition is published after the copyrights of the original creator(s) have expired. In the United States, copyright can only apply to new creative work, and the re-engraving of a public domain piece (not including new additions of creative material) should not qualify for a new copyright, despite copyright claims (which properly would only apply to new material).

You may need to check the publication date and details of the work's first publication in order to determine the work's copyright status, especially for the United States, as the copyright on the original work may not have expired.
