A New Book
By Brian Chesters

I received in the post to-day a note from an old friend Terry Broadbent of a new book that he has published entitled "Great Pianists of the Golden Age" by Marguerite and Terry Broadbent with a forword by Vladimir Ashkenazy.

It is a biography of 25 pianists who were involved in the great era of roll recording such as Saint-Saens, Carreno, Paderewski, Rachmaninov, Grainger, Rubinstein, Hofmann etc. etc.

It also contains a list of the recordings that are currently available on disc etc. and complete lists of their recordings on Duo-Art, Welte, Ampico amd a summery of their other piano rolls.

The price is only =A314:95 in the UK with =A32:55 UK post or =A33:18 oversees postage. I thought some may have been interested in this.

Brian Chesters.
