Seeking Ferruccio Busoni DUCA Rolls
By Judith Crispin

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

Hello,  I've posted a couple of times before about an
international project I'm working on with Larry Sitsky and Albert
Petrak, to locate and preserve reproducing piano rolls recorded
by Ferruccio Busoni for Philipps DUCA.  The project is progressing
slowly but we have a number of recordings still unaccounted for.

I'd be very appreciative of any information about the possible
whereabouts of Busoni DUCA rolls in any condition.  Any suggestions
as to collections to contact would be most welcome!

Many thanks,
