21b.mp3 (92 kb)  21. unknown (my favorite!) - 38er Ruth?
Adam Ramet: I've listened to tune #21. It's definately not Ketelbey nor Victor Herbert. There much similarity to Robert Stolz's 1920 foxtrot "Salome". I'd date the tune closely to 1919/1920 by it's style. A similar type of foxtrot appears in a pastiche style in Ravel's "L'Enfant et les sortileges" (1925). This style of multi-themed dance foxtrot is a European one from the 20s almost certainly.
Björn Isebaert:  Sunflower - foxtrot (L. Eysoldt) - 39er Ruth ("Double Ruth") at Utrecht Museum (NL)
Hans van Oost: "Sonnenblumen" (sunflowers) and was composed by Eysoldt. The organ playing is a Ruth style 39, one of the two ever made; 96 keyless and completely chromatic. This organ is now owned by Mr. Wenzler of Switzerland. The recording is from abt. 1975.
