Unknown Piano Roll JB004 "Reveille"
By Robbie Rhodes
Collector "JB" writes about unknown roll JB004:
This unknown song is by an unknown roll company. In my head, I call
this tune "Ragtime Get-up". This roll was probably manufactured around
1917-18, because "Reveille" is featured in the arrangement of the tune.
The ink for the stencil is purple. It says "Presto" at the beginning
of the roll (which I realize means "peppy"). The Tempo is given as
80-90. Stenciled purple dots run the entire length of the roll, to
indicate expression. This is not a Pianostyle roll, but the holes look
like Pianostyle manufacture. There are no markings at the end of the
roll.
