Seek Welte Licensee Rolls Played By Heniot Levy
By Albert Petrak

To all:  Attention Welte-Mignon (Licensee) roll owners:  Igor Kipnis is
seeking the rolls made in the mid-'20's by his grandfather, Heniot Levy,
for transfer to contemporary format.  He'll use them in the lectures he
gives in Eastern universities.  Thus far, only No. 7780:  Chopin:
Waltz, Op. 64, No. 3 has been located.

  6557 H. Levy - Two Waltzes:  No. 1
  6562 Chopin - Nocturne, Op. 62, No. 2, E
  6591 Bach-Liszt - Organ Prelude and Fugue, a:  Prelude
  6537 Chopin - Trois nouvelles etudes,  No. 1, f
  6724 Chopin - Etude, Op. 25, No. 5, Gb  ?Butterfly?
  7323 H. Levy - Variations on an Original Theme - Part One
  7324 H. Levy - Variations on an Original Theme - Part Two
  7365 H. Levy - Two Waltzes:  No. 2
  7534 Chopin - Mazurka, Op. 33, No. 4, b
  7780 Chopin - Waltz, Op. 64, No. 3, Ab

May I request an intensive search of your collection, and notification
of other Welte owners who might not be members of the MMD?  Please
contact me directly.  We are unable to use recuts, and so seek only
"brown box" originals.

Any help you can give, or suggestions as to where person or persons
might be contacted, will be of great help.

Gratefully,

Albert M. Petrak, Founder
Reproducing Piano Roll Foundation
