Classical Music for 88-note Piano
By Karl Ellison
In all the roll auctions I've participated in, and the few catalogs I get, I have yet to find a source of 88-note rolls that have a selection of classical music. QRS has some still in print, but unless you go to the reproducing brands, there doesn't seem to be much out there. I realize that publishing Chopin on a standard roll elicits the proverbial saying, "a silk purse from a sow's ear", but with conscientious expression from the player, you should be able to produce good music, even if the purse is actually polyester.
Can anyone supply a source where some can be purchased: retail, auction, or otherwise?
