I'd be happy to take no. 2.

Please take the time you need with your family!

I'll do the French Serenade, but I do hope that you are able to submit the music that you put your hard work into at some point, when you are able.

I have completed my recordings. What is the procedure now? To whom should I send the YouTube links?

Sorry to hear your sad news Yester

Ganddalf, I think you just need to track down the Opus leaders to the pieces you chose, and send them the YT Link

Thanks a lot, LadyChen and Morodine for taking my pieces.
You do a lot of extra work, I hope, I can return the favor one day.



I hope so, too. At the moment my thoughts in my head are 24 hours double rotating,but I will do my very best.

Thanks again to all for the good wishes.

For Ganddalf and any others - to save you going back to look for the list:

Don't forget that all contributors are asked to write a short text on what they learned/liked/suffered through in mastering their pieces!

I'm uploading my video to Youtube

Beat you to it.

... well, one down and one to be improved.

"Opus 43!! Opus 43!!
Come to me!! Come to me!!"

Grieg's music is all in the public domain, right?

I'm just making sure because I've uploaded one of my Grieg pieces to youtube and i already have a claim against it that says "matched 3rd party content". :\

Why not try uploading under a simplified title? I`ve had no bother . . yet!

I have faced this so many times over my son's recordings. There are a ton of music rights societies supposedly working on behalf of professional musicians. If YouTube's crude matching program "thinks" that your work sounds like a particular recording of Martha Argerich that is owned by EMI, it will allow EMI to slap that notice on your recording. This has nothing to do with Grieg being in the public domain. It's about 3rd party content.

Follow the dispute procedure and tell them that there is no 3rd party content. That it is your recording, of you, in your house, using your recording equipment. Then EMI will have to judge your claim. Usually, they release it. I have had to fight them repeatedly, and sometimes heatedly.

Once, I actually got Norman Lebrecht to publicly embarrass EMI on his website. Through that process, I found the email of a lawyer at EMI, and he "fixed it" for me. Of course, a few months later some other society (Orchard, I think) claimed the recording on behalf of a completely different pianist. And I fought them off. Never ending process.

Here's the Lebrecht involvement, BTW. It was fun!

This is David's Boy, not Barenboim

Wow, that would be quite an achievement! Won't happen to me

Yes, but the matching program is indeed verrrrrrrrry crude. My fourteen year old was accused of being Daniel Barenboim. Imagine my surprise.

Thanks so much peter and Piano*Dad. I tried what you suggested peter but it kept up with the matched 3rd party content. So I will do what Piano*Dad suggests and dispute the claim.

it's pretty ridiculous because when you hear my recording you will hear that it sounds like someone learning to play the piano who still needs a lot of practice--nothing professional-sounding about it!

Thanks for the link Piano*Dad, I will check it out!

The dispute process will ask if you have proof of rights to use the content. That's NOT what you say, and not the box you check off. You are disputing that there IS 3rd party content. It's 100% your own content, of a piece in the public domain.

Too late to join in? I recently worked up To the Spring (43,6). Any good? No worries if someone else is already covering it.

I checked the list and see that Carey has been working on that one.

By the way folks, in case you didn't know, I'm opled for opus62, and Richard is opled for opus 54 and 38

And if any opus 43-ers are looking in (Beric, Wisebuff, Allard and Carey) . . how ya getting` on, guys?

Processing this stuff is going to be fun . . . hope y`all have a sense o` humour . . .and truckloads o` patience . .
