Wishlist

It is not the general policy to allow a “dump“ of a composer’s complete œuvre in the wishlist pages – these have to balance all the possible requested works for various composers. Whoever added the following to the wishlist page should seriously consider making it into the basis for a separate composer’s work page (along with the works which are already available on IMSLP).

As to the string quartets, they seem not to have been published until ca.1948 (1966 actually??) (though they have all been recorded, some of them multiple times, and are much more familiar now...) and so would be at best PD-CA if that... Eric 15:59, 2 March 2013 (EST)
