Seek Ampico Accompaniment Rolls
By Moe Goldy

I have an Chickering Ampico A that has a passage repeat capability
for people who don't have an accompanist when they practice.  I just
discovered that there are rolls that have just the background with no
melody.  I would like a couple of these rolls just to demonstrate the
capability of the repeat.  Does anyone have any "accompaniment" rolls
for sale?

 [ The Ampico rollography by Obenchain lists about 100 titles in
 [ the "Vocal Accompaniment Series" and four rolls in the "Violin
 [ Accompaniment Series"; one of these titles is the piano part only
 [ to accompany "Concerto for Violin, Op. 64, G major" by Mendelssohn,
 [ Ampico 40023G (9/26).  -- Robbie
