Penderecki- Partita for Harpsichord and Orchestra (1/2)

Krzysztof Penderecki's Harpsichord Concerto, named the Partita for Harpsichord and Orchestra. This is actually probably my favorite piece by Penderecki; although it's slightly lesser known than the Cello Concerto 1, Capriccio for Violin or Oboe or the Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima, I think it's definitely of a high enough quality to be performed/recorded as much as any of those pieces. I guess there just aren't enough harpsichordists interested.

I'm not saying he's just blindly scrawling on the scores as pictured above.....but does he have to use crayons?

[John11inch]

Apparently not, seeing as how he didn't.

Fine then, colored pencils.

I'm afraid I don't. I think Schott briefly published a lot of his older works; I'd ask them first. Some of Penderecki's older stuff is simply impossible to find outside of a library, though. Best of luck.
