Sibelius Violin Concerto - out of print?

July 9, 2005 at 04:11 AM · Hmmm that's interesting... Try a trip to London they should have it there

By the way, what kind of grading system do you have over there? When I saw the Sibelius was grade 6 on the Shar site, I nearly fell off my perch! No way am I ever bringing my fiddle over to the states - I'll stay put where grade six is manageable!

July 9, 2005 at 04:44 PM · Whatever grading system they use on the Shar site (well first off, I disagree with their levels anyhow) gives 6 as the highest level.

July 10, 2005 at 11:52 AM · The International Music Company (IMC) still prints the Sibelius.

July 10, 2005 at 12:11 PM · The IMC Sibelius is indeed under copyright restriction in Europe.

July 10, 2005 at 01:06 PM · Sorry, I live in the US and that's the edition I played.

July 11, 2005 at 06:12 PM · Still haven't tried to order it, but I will! Thank heavens 6th grade is the highest in the Shar system - I thought maybe it was similar to the exam grading system we have here, and if Sibelius was grade six.........thought I was going to have to hang up my boots. Maybe I can relax a little.
