Subject: Organ Rolls
The Union Presbyterian Church, Newburgh, New York, USA, has discovered
a cache of some 236 organ rolls from the Aeolian Organ Co., New York,
NY. Originally, the organ at the church was a player organ and these
rolls were found recently.
The collection contains mostly classical repertoire, including
symphonic and operatic works by familiar composers: Bach, Beethoven,
Brahms, Dvorak, Elgar, Gounod, Grieg, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Schubert,
Schumann, Tschaikowski, & Wagner. Among the lesser-known composers
are: Batiste, Foote, Godard, Guilmant, Hadley, Klein, Merkel, Raff, and
Scharwenka, to name a few.
