 [ Editor's Note:

 [ Here's a rough translation by Robbie Rhodes of the above message.

Information to all friends of mechanical music:

On June 9, 1996, in Chemnitz (in the former East-Germany), Wolfgang
Heisig will present two compositions by Lyonel Feininger.  The occasion
is the opening exhibition of "LYONEL FEININGER -- 200 woodcuts from
private collection -- A showing in cooperation with the Ludwigsburg Art
Club".

Heisig transcribed 2 manuscripts by Feininger, Fugue I and Fugue II,
and punched the music roll, and will interpret the music with a Phonola
player piano.
