Converting Orchestrelle to Play 88-Note Rolls
By Bruce Clark
The question was _not_ "can it be done," but a request for advice
and opinions on the possibility of converting an Orchestrelle to play
88-note rolls. I firmly agree with Berley Firmin and Kim Bunker.
Three cheers for you guys!
88-note piano rolls converted to play organ music will only serve
to satisfy the "musically illiterate". If they enjoy it, let them;
I don't want to be around to hear it! I think I would rather hear
88-note player bag-pipes. Can that be done?
