A frequent pianist at Pianostyle was cited on rolls as "B. G.
Howard", yet I can't seem to get any further illumination about him.
I learned that "P. Loraine" was Paul Loraine, and that "G. R. Kehoe"
was George Kehoe, but Mr. Howard's identity eluded me.

Indeed, a sometime Pianostyle arranger with the pseudonym "Vita
Vestrizzio" was later identified as pan-label performer Robert W.
Shoemaker, but I can't find any substantive evidence that he also
used Howard's name.

Googling this question and mining the MMD archives have given me
nothing to go on.  Might there be any suggestions for further
information about "B. G. Howard"?
