String Quartet No.1, Op.7 (Schoenberg, Arnold)
It is unlikely that this work is public domain in the EU, or in any country where the copyright term is life-plus-70 years. However, it is in the public domain in Canada (where IMSLP is hosted) and other countries where the term is life-plus-50 years (like China, Japan, Korea and many others worldwide). As this work was first published before 1923 or failed to meet notice or renewal requirements to secure statutory copyright, it is very likely to be public domain in the USA as well.
Berlin: Verlag Dreililien, . Plate 624.
Mineola: Dover Publications, 1997.
*Despite the 1905 copyright, the score was not released until 1907, and the parts not until 1908. (Actually, that's a Dover reprint, and one has to take their word as to that copyright. There -is- a downloadable scoreof this work (if only page-by-page, maybe...). It shows a plate (624) but no copyright date. Maybe someone should "mirror" that Loeb Library scan, too... :)
