Ervin Nyiregyhazi, Ampico Artist
By Christine Robinson

In 030907 MMDigest, Marc Goodman showed an interest in pianist
Erwin Nyiregyhazi.  Recently I read an enlightening biography about
him called 'Psychology of a Musical Prodigy' by Geza Revesz, (1925).
My library obtained this for me in the UK and if they cannot find me
a book here they go on a world-wide search.  In fact, I've just borrowed
one they got for me from a university in the USA!  It's a good library.

 [ less than thrilled (this is putting it mildly!) with the quality of
 [ the reproduction of his work on piano rolls."  -- Robbie
