Arrangements, transcriptons, etc.
These are arrangements and transcriptions that Palmgren made of other works that he did not create (e.g. folk songs).
Collections assembled by publishers
According to a biography on a June 1926 Gramaphone article, Palmgren had two operas at that time, one produced (Daniel Hjort) and another one unproduced. As far as it is known, Palmgren never produced the other one.
A fully detailed works list (In Finnish) is under preparation by T. Tommila. More information can be found on Wikipedia. Another fully detailed works list in preperation (in Finnish) can be found here: Preliminary List of Compositions by Selim Palmgren. It is the source for more detailed information such as details about these works' whereabouts, and dates (most approximate).
