American Pianist Julie Rive-King
By Albert Petrak

I received a request from one Alex Swensen, inquiring as to the existence
of roll recordings made by Julie Rive-King.  I've encountered the name
many times, usually in company with the likes of Bloomfield-Zeisler and
some of the other American women pianists of the time, but I've never
found any recordings listed.  His request was:

> Would you happen to have any piano roll reproductions of historical
> pianist Julie Rive-King.  I am particularly interested in the
> following:
>
>   Home Sweet Home
>   On Blooming Meadows
>   Gems of Scotland
>
> I have acquired about a dozen of her scores but am unable to
> find recordings.

Please reply directly to Alex Swensen <virtuoso010@yahoo.com>
