Welte-Mignon Classics on New Audio CDs
By Albert Petrak

To all:  Just a brief note re John McClelland's e-mail regarding Ken
Caswell's work vis-a-vis the Welte catalog.  (MMD 001030)

I spoke to Albany/Troy Distributors and principal Susan Bush this
morning and she advises that the Debussy and Granados, as well as the
proposed Bloomfield-Zeisler CDs, are actually issued on Pierian
Records, probably Ken Caswell's label.  Albany is a distributor for
many different labels, other than it's own two, Albany and Troy.  She
didn't indicate how much, but I assume the price to be $15.95 (the
standard price now).

E-mail inquiries to the firm go to Susan Bush <sbush7815@aol.com>.
I believe they will sell direct.  Presumably the Debussy is Pierian #1,
and the Granados Pierian #2.

For those of you who might be interested in a critique, I have
requested promotional copies for the radio station (WCLV) for which
I am an announcer.  If they materialize, I'll give my assessment, for
anyone who cares to have it.
