As you may remember, free-licensed works are copyrighted (since free licenses precisely rely on copyright, for example to guarantee the author's paternity right). If it is not published, that is a very good reason to release it under an alternate license, since the author is not bound to a publisher (and the commissionner, AFAIK, should not hold any copyright on the work). > That being said, I have proposed to Pascual to talk to the composer > and try him to license the score.

That may imply that he's waiting for a publisher to step up and make money with his work. Unfortunately, no free-licenses-friendly structure can compete with that (yet).
