CDs of Symphonion Music
By Kristi Rendahl

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

Hi,  This is my first post here.  In the past year I inherited the
Symphonion my grandfather brought back from Germany in the 1940s.
It's a large model with an equally large base holding the 39 discs
he also possessed.  I'm told it was built sometime in the 1890s.

As a Christmas gift for my mom, I had all the discs digitally recorded
and my clever graphic designer husband created CD covers for each of
the two volumes.  I've looked around on-line for similar types of
Symphonion music compilations, but haven't seen any.

This makes me wonder whether people would be interested in such
recordings, and if so, how I might go about finding that market.  The
Smithsonian has an enormous collection of music, but I'm not convinced
that this would fall into their areas of immediate interest.  Does
anyone have any advice for me?

Thank you,
Kristi Rendahl
