MMD Archives February 1996 1996.02.08 01 Prev  Next Joplin's "Treemonisha" on Rolls? By Ed Berlin > Does anyone know if portions of Scott Joplin's opera "Treemonisha" have been > put on piano rolls yet? The overture especially would make a great roll! > Since the opera was "lost" for so many years, and not really performed as > such until 1976 (when it was recorded by DG on record/CD), ..... Strange that you should consider a work unperformed until it appears on record. What about the stagings at Morehouse College and Wolf Trap in 1972, and at Houston & Broadway in 1975? I suspect these were more than just rehearsals for the recording. Ed Berlin (Message sent Thu 8 Feb 1996, 15:37:00 GMT, from time zone GMT-0500.) Key Words in Subject:  Joplin's, Rolls, Treemonisha
