Waltzes by Zulueta

Pingu?  I think I've seen every episode in the past with my children!
It's amazing what can be done with Plasticine.

But then it's amazing what can be done with paper.  I've just repaired
a very old unknown torn roll, now glued and stuck everywhere -- looks
a total mess actually, and no label either.  Then I placed it into the
player piano.  It shows you what paper can really do, and do really
well.

Hooray for the paper piano roll, and thank goodness we still have these
rolls of music past, essentially lost in other forms.  Not forgetting,
of course, lost composers.

Take Zulueta, for example: wonderful waltzes on a Themodist roll I have.
Now, who was he?
