Passing of Ken Caswell, Welte-Mignon Musicologist
By Ed Gaida

Ken Caswell introduced me to the world of Welte-Mignon reproducing
pianos in 1972 when he was manager of the San Antonio Symphony.
There was little about Welte that Ken did not know.  It is with
regret that I announce his passing on 15 February 2018.

His complete obituary can be seen and read at by clicking the following link:

He will be missed.
