Enjoying Classical and Popular Piano Rolls
By Marc Goodman

With all respect to Mr. Fairfield's opinions on what music sounds
good on a player or reproducer, in my opinion many "orchestral"
works transcribed (often by the composer) sound just swell on the
piano; just one example is Tschaikovsky's "Waltz of the Flowers".
"Beauty is in the ear (sic) of the beholder!"

Best, Marc Goodman
