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. This edition was published by Bärenreiter in Germany over 25 years ago and is in the public domain in its country of origin.

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). 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.

NMA report (German)
Extra Information Parts published by Heina, Paris (described as "Frühdrücke" in DMA) (no example of this survives, it seems; mentioned in a Mozart letter of 11 September 1778 (publication of K.238, K.246 and K.271). Earliest surviving known parts are Johann André's ca.1800 publication of this "Concerto facile" Opus 84 (André's appellation), plate 1422. Earliest full-score publication mentioned in NMA is from Roubier's edition published by Richault of 20 (a bit later 21) Mozart piano concertos in full score, 1857/1859 (unless the Simrock or Amon publications mentioned in NMA from the 1800s are full scores; this is unclear?).
