Keith in OZ asked: >Any of you hornists- (or others) know if the Strauss Horn Concerto (#1) in >Eb Opus 11. is arranged for Concert Band? (Good arrg't please!) If so, where >do I get it? If not- how would I be with copyright in arranging it myself?
Well, it was composed in 1883, but Richard did not die until 1949. Under U.S. law, it would be public domain. I don't know about Australian law. In a country with life-plus-50-years instead of a set copyright period it would have entered the public domain in 1999. But under life-plus-70-years it would be under copyright until 2019. (And yes, it could be PD in one country and under copyright in another with different laws. I don't believe that the laws of the original copyrighting country apply, except in that country.) In other words, it depends!
