Victor Herbert "Symphonic Fantasy" for Duo-Art Organ
By Adam Aceto

I am looking for an audio recording (MIDI or mp3 file) of Duo-Art
Organ Roll #130 (or #51130): Victor Herbert's "Symphonic Fantasy."

Rollin Smith included a transcribed section from the work in his
publication, "Adagios for Organ."

Thanks!

[ Aeolian Organ). From the performance description:
[
[ "As far as I can ascertain, this is the only piece he wrote for the
[ organ, commissioned by the Aeolian Organ Company and only available
[ to owners of Aeolian organs as paper rolls (as for a pianola). The
[ score for this piece was transcribed from one of these rolls."
