Matthew Caulfield's note relative to catalog listings (MMD 000116)
reminds that the anniversary of the posting of the Reproducing Piano
Roll Foundation's debut (2/29/99) is approaching.  We will have a
substantial update, with corrections for some catalogs, plus
information relative to the project of restoration of the 78 roll
recordings made by Ferruccio Busoni (1866-1924).

This will serve, as well, as a reminder that the RPRF supplies complete
catalog listings for the so-called "classical" series of both Duo-Art
and Ampico, as well as a virtually-complete listing of Welte (original
German) and domestic Welte-Mignon.  Further, what has been gleaned from
catalog sources for all other companies producing classical recordings
is available;  the material is furnished in Adobe PDF files because of
length and detail.  All material is supplied at no charge to all at

  http://www.rprf.org/index.html

Interested parties are invited to contact this site if additional
information is required.  We are in the process of obtaining a
501(3)(c) classification with the IRS, and when secured, solicitation
for funds will be undertaken.  Consult the web site for specific
information and detail.
