[Chozart]

you are one lucky as hell bastard

well, when I was visiting Bosnia when I was 13, I got all this old @$$ (as in like.. 50+ years) music from this one girl that was starting to study in a conservatory there.
There was a lot, and it was all really heavy.. most of my music was once hers..

but still, not as much as you got!
You lucky, LUCKY son of a b****

I concur with that, although IMO that that is nothing compared with the selection of (rare) sheet music that I have. I have masses by Palestrina, Bach and Bruckner, chamber music by Haydn and Mozart, orchestral music by Corelli through Wagner, operas by Von Winter, Paisello, Rossini, Bellini, Verdi, Mozart, Gluck, and Handel, and tons of Classical and Romantic piano music, as well as a heaping load of Bach's masterworks, from the Chorale Preludes to the Art of the Fugue. I have mainly Schirmer editions, though for the Bach I prefer Dover. Much of the sheet music I have is still in current circulation; however, I have older editions .

lol, well, the music looks pretty old. haha its rips when i touch it. i had the most fun time taping up the binding with masking tape. haha. i got something called "the priest's March" by mendelssohn too.
and a whole lot of loose pages i don't know where they go.

[Jeliness2]

Sorry for reviving this somewhat dead topic, but I'm very much intrigued by all of this music you have received! Some of it is very interesting, especially the Burgmuller Etudes and the Grieg. Overall, what publishers? Hehe, so many questions! Anyways hope you have fun with all of those. I got all of my books as leftovers from my mother, as birthday presents or from my teacher.

PS

[Jeliness2]

That's cool; most of my music by Chopin is in Urtext Peters. The others are in Schirmer.
