Ken Dryden Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 I just have the one we discussed earlier in another thread: Evidently there are four more tracks sourced from his piano rolls on this CD: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted June 19 Author Report Share Posted June 19 I have the Rite of Spring roll (which is intense). Was that done with a different technology? I think it was? If so, are there more of those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted June 30 Report Share Posted June 30 (edited) There were different technologies, from simple piano rolls to sophisticated Welte-Mignon machines to the highly developped models Nancarrow used. Do some research on Wikipedia. Issues of these recordings sometimes do not differentiate. Edited June 30 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted July 1 Author Report Share Posted July 1 Benn borderline obsessing over the Bellafon Condon Collection of these. Very intense music, again, the Sonata channeling Bach from the dark side... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted July 1 Report Share Posted July 1 Try to find Marcelle Meyer's recordings, they're mind-blowing! https://www.discogs.com/release/22212736-Strawinsky-Marcelle-Meyer-Petrouchka-Ragtime-Sérénade-Piano-Rag-Music-Sonate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted July 30 Report Share Posted July 30 (edited) Found out that Strawinsky indeed conceived music for the pianola that was unplayable for humans. https://www.discogs.com/release/19600819-Stravinsky-Rex-Lawson-The-Rite-Of-Spring-Petrushka https://www.pianola.org/history/history_stravinsky.cfm Edited July 30 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
