Copyright Information | This work is first published by New Music (in California) in 1937, instead of a late reprint of manuscript by Edition Peters in 1965-1966 (registered 1965, published 1966). No renewal records are found in 1964-1966. In the USA this work is most likely in the public domain because it was published without a compliant copyright notice or no renewal was found after a thorough search of the Catalog of Copyright Entries and it was apparently ineligible for "restoration" under GATT/TRIPS.
