Seek "Scheherazade" On Ampico Rolls
By John Dombrosky

I am looking for the complete "Scheherazade" made around 1922 by Ampico.
The numbers for the 4 roll set are 60553, 61083, 61093 and 61383.
Original rolls are not necessary so re-cuts are acceptable.  If any
MMDers have info on this I would appreciate it.

Musically, John Dombrosky

 [ In the Ampico rollography by Elaine Obenchain, page 188:
 [ Sheherazade Op. 35, Rimsky-Korsakoff, played by Maier & Pattison,
 [ "conducted by Altschuler".  Early in the twentieth century, Modest
 [ Altschuler organized the Russian Symphony Orchestra Society of New
 [ York, which for two decades toured the United States featuring
 [ performances and compositions by leading contemporary Russians.
