Nobody owns copyright of music written two hundred years ago. The copyright of anything published before 1923 is irrelevant as it has expired. Copyright in an unpublished work would also expire according to the laws of the country in which it was created. For comparison, in the USA, an old work previously unpublished but recently issued would have a copyright that does not expire until 2047.
