Seek Conlon Nancarrow Piano Rolls
By Marc Sachnoff

Hello All,  Summer continues in Seattle for its surprise extended
run this year.

Dan Grinstead, a fine ragtime pianist and piano roll collector in
Seattle, is searching for copies of Ampico transcriptions of Conlon
Nancarrow's compositions.  I noted in the MMD Archive that Jürgen
Hocker and the Paul Sacher Foundation of Basel are in possession of
a complete set of piano rolls that were created for concerts around
Europe and have been posted on YouTube.  Does anyone in MMD-land
have a set of these rolls for sale?

Any help would be welcomed.

Warmly,
Marc J. Sachnoff
