Piano Rolls Played On Pipe Organ
By Bruce Clark

A piano is a percussion instrument.  An organ is not.  88-note piano
rolls played on an organ?  Yes, they play the notes, but the results
are choppy, not very pleasing.  An 88-note organ roll is much more
satisfactory.  Many pipe organ rolls have stop changes and swell shade
perforations in addition to the notes.
