| Zimmermann | www.zimmermann-frankfurt.de
Publishers of the majority of Medtner's works from Op 37 onwards. They do not sell direct to the public and can be slow to supply retailers, so you will save time if you find one who has your item in stock. |
| Boosey & Hawkes | www.boosey.com
Online shop lists a mixture of their own and other publishers' editions. Handlers for Édition Russe de Music. The catalogue lists ERM publications up to Op 35. I have had mixed success with the custom print service. My attempt in 2006 to order the Op 17 Novelles and Op 19 songs elicited the reply "The complete Op 19 and Op 17 are now out of print, and we are unable to obtain or produce copies". The catalogue now explicitly states that these items are for sale, so future requests may be more fruitful. |
| Edition Peters | www.edition-peters.com
Agents for Forberg and Belaieff. They also list a few works from the Zimmermann catalogue. I have found the online ordering service very good. The New York website (linked above) offers the widest choice. |
| Stainer & Bell | www.stainer.co.uk
Will supply authorised photocopies of the Op 58 two-piano works. Speedy service. |
| Dover Publications | www.doverpublications.com
Published the piano sonatas (in two volumes) and the complete Fairy Tales. Reproduced from the 1959 Collected Edition with translations of the Russian footnotes etc. The Fairy Tales are currently still available but both sonata volumes are out of print. Used copies are hard to come by and generally advertised at high prices. Dover say they have no plans to reprint these volumes. |
| Recital Publications | www.recitalpublications.com
US publisher offering reprints of the early songs. Can also be ordered through Theodore Front, who will ship outside the USA. |
| Classical Vocal Repertoire | Classical Vocal Reprints
Offers reprints of the early songs within the USA. Can also be ordered through www.sheetmusicplus.com, who will ship outside the USA. |
| Ruslania | www.ruslania.com
Finland-based distributor of Russian books, sheet music and media. Offers a few Medtner works published in Russia. |
The online vendors offering the largest selection of Medtner are Sheet Music Plus and Musicroom. Each lists some publications not offered by the other, so it is worth trying both. The German site www.worldsheetmusic.com offers works from the Zimmermann, Boosey & Hawkes and Peters catalogues.

Non-Russian speakers will find the URLs useful for decoding the works (hover over the link with the mouse). |
