Ernesto Lecuona Compositions on Piano Rolls
By Duaine Hechler

I serviced a client today who has an Ampico player and I took along
an Ampico roll of "España" and "Malagueña" by Ernesto Lecuona.  The
client loved it and I have ordered one for him.

Based on eBay and a few other sources, they are pretty rare.  My
question is, how many more, of any style, of Ernesto Lecuona's rolls
exist?  Also, are there any other "Spanish" rolls still existing?
