Buying the music of John Foulds is a tricky business today, for while in his day many of his works were published, his swift disappearance from the British musical scene mean't that works were left to languish in back catalogues. The twentieth century was a period of conglomeration for music publishing, and tracing the present owner of long-forgotten companies is not always easy. Bluntinstrument has begun a quest here to make it easier for anyone interested to obtain a copy of his published music. In some cases this may only be by obtaining permission in order to make a copy of one's own from a library collection, but at least the groundwork has been done here to explore the alternatives.
The first jewel in the dusty Foulds publication crown is Boosey & Hawkes, but others will be forthcoming, so long as bluntinstrument is successful in making contact. Ultimately the aim of bluntinstrument would be to conglomerate information work by work, including library copies, analysis, article/book mentions, manuscript source and of course the means to purchase or copy, but without necessary time or resources this site must be content with its current complexity.
