I don't suppose anyone out there has a pdf of the score of Wikmanson's quartet number 1 they could email me in the course of today? It's for assessed performance module and the examiners could well do with a score, and we only have the parts. It's not on IMSLP. *If* the unlikely is true and someone has, the e-address is fjones@liv.ac.uk
Many many thanks!!!
http://www.swedishmusicalheritage.com/composers/wikmanson-johan/SMH-W250-Quartett_D_minor_From_Three_Quartets_for_Two_Violins_Alto_and_Violonce (http://www.swedishmusicalheritage.com/composers/wikmanson-johan/SMH-W250-Quartett_D_minor_From_Three_Quartets_for_Two_Violins_Alto_and_Violonce) claims that the only published editions before 1965 were in the form of individual parts, not full scores, which might explain why one doesn't find it on IMSLP, anyway. Hope someone has it!
Thanks for that. I know there is an edition published by Silvertrust, but it would not be possible to get it in time (for tomorrow!!!!), so the search goes on ...
Hrm. Does this (http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc1.32106005273088) link or something like it work for you or, as in the US, just give a "not available online" thing?
That link doesn't work, as you suspected. But your earlier link to Swedish Muscial Heritage lead me to the Music and Theatre Library of Stockholm; I emailed them and within an hour they had scanned the quartet and sent me the pdf - so thank you very much for the pointer that lead me to the goal!

I _like_ that!!! (Hats dizzyingly off to some libraries, or something, very seriously...)
Hear, hear! That's what electronic communications should be all about in the academic world. Well done!
Brilliant indeed!
We (the quartet) think the performance went very nicely. In the event, not only did the Musik och Teaterbibliotek supply pdf of score, but the publishers (Silvertrust) whose parts we had bought and were using also very gernerously sent a pdf in good time. :)
