Aeolian Orchestrelle Plays 58-note Grand Roll
By Larry Norman

Hi all,  Mike Knudsen asked, "Do any models of Orchestrelle play
Aeolian Grand rolls?"

The answer is Yes!  All of the Aeolian Orchestrelles play the
58-note Aeolian Grand rolls.  Also, I have found that some of the
early Aeolian Pipe Organs had built-in 58-note players to play the
Aeolian Grand rolls.  This is something I was not aware of until
I bought a collection of the rolls and the party also was offering
the 58-note player mechanism.

Musically Yours,
Larry Norman
