Recordo Roll Suggestions
By Steve Harder

I've recently purchased several Recordo recuts from Rock Soup.  Ginny
Billings has been helpful in suggesting works we would enjoy but I'd
like to seek your input as well.  As the selection of Recordo rolls are
limited I find that I'm unfamiliar with most of these works and their
players and some of the composers.

We especially like

•    #1372 Badinage             Victor Herbert Ferdinand Himmelreich
    #1023 Jeaux D'Eau          Ravel          Leopold Godowsky

•Can you offer any comments on any of the following.  (I realize it is
unlikely you will have heard these actual rolls but perhaps you can
categorize these works as to their similarity to the ones mentioned above.)
We find ourselves enjoying 'tone poems' or contemplative works.

•    #239  Waltz Opus 17 No3             Moszkowski   Ferdinand Himmelreich
    #187  En Automne                    Moszkowski   Ivan Kerouak
    #279  Sparks(Etincelles)            Moszkowski   Belle Tannenbaum
    #309  Toccata Opus18 No4            Sgambati     Paul Van Katwijk
    #355  Waltz for Left Hand#3         Ilgenfritz   Ilgengritz
    #368  Ballet Sentimentale           Zamecnik     Ilgenfritz
    #404  Jeu Des Ondes                 Leschetizky  Mary Angell
    #700  Valse Elise                   Friml        Ilgenfritz
    #836  Ricordati (Nocturne)          Gottschalk   Louis Marrier
    #1071 Concert Etude in E Flat Major Schloetzer   Harold Triggs
    #1359 Hefre Kati Opus 32 No 4       Jubay        Edward Harris
    #1409 Scherzo                       Chopin       Berly Rubinstein
    #471  Poet and Peasant Overture     Suppe        Angell & Hilliard
    #988  La Capricieuse                Milde        Richard Merton
    #1204 Pagliacci Prologue            Leoncavallo  Sturkow-Ryder

•Any other comments are certainly welcome.  I'd also like to know of any
non-Internet Recordo enthusiasts.  My main avenue of communication and
search has been Internet but I'd like to widen my contacts.
