American Pianist Julie Rive-King
By Albert Petrak
I received a request from one Alex Swensen, inquiring as to the existence
of roll recordings made by Julie Rive-King. I've encountered the name
many times, usually in company with the likes of Bloomfield-Zeisler and
some of the other American women pianists of the time, but I've never
found any recordings listed. His request was:
> Would you happen to have any piano roll reproductions of historical
> pianist Julie Rive-King. I am particularly interested in the
> following:
>
> Home Sweet Home
> On Blooming Meadows
> Gems of Scotland
>
> I have acquired about a dozen of her scores but am unable to
> find recordings.
Please reply directly to Alex Swensen <virtuoso010@yahoo.com>
