Reproduco Religious Music Rolls
By Ray Bauer

[ Ray Bauer's Reproduco piano-organ formerly played in a Midwest
 [ funeral parlor, and it arrived with a number of music rolls of
 [ appropriate music.  The music sheets are mounted on standard
 [ 88-note spools, one song per spool, and are stored in small piano
 [ roll boxes.  -- Robbie

All the rolls are original with standard Reproduco OS/NOS expression
coding, including the tremulant chain perforation.  Not all labels show
a composer or artist.

The four "M" organ rolls are quite different than the other religious
ones, especially the roll by Chopin.

I hope other collectors can add to the list.  Based upon my disjointed
numbers, there _must_ be more titles!
