Ossip Gabrilowitsch Conducts Wedding Reception
By Dave Krall

At https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxO4wIEF7Fk is a video of Ossip
Gabrilowitsch and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra playing fox trots and
other dance music for the wedding of Delphine Dodge to Jimmy Cromwell
in 1920!  (Gabrilowitsch recorded rolls for Duo-Art, Welte and Artrio
Angelus and Horace Dodge had an Aeolian organ installed at Rose
Terrace.)  See the Maestro conducting [at far left] at time 1:37.

 [ Ref. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ossip_Gabrilowitsch -- "In July
 [ 1905 he recorded ten pieces for the Welte-Mignon reproducing piano,
 [ one of the first pianists to do so.  Between 1915 and 1927, he
 [ subsequently recorded at least fifteen more reproducing rolls for
 [ Duo-Art and least five reproducing rolls for Ampico."  -- Robbie
