Duo-Art Rolls (Set of 3): Saint-Saens: G Minor Piano Concerto -- Harold Bauer

Location:
Tenaha, TX
Description:

Items: This is the complete three-roll set of Harold Bauer’s Duo-Art recording of Camille Saint-Saens’ Concerto, Op. 22 in G Minor for piano and orchestra. The rolls are numbered 5953, 5963, and 5973. These rolls are "recuts" produced by Klavier Music Rolls of North Hollywood, California. Orchestral introductions to each movement are also performed by Bauer. Harold Bauer was an English pianist who had a very distinguished career as a soloist and as an accompanist. You can see him accompanying the famous violinist Efrem Zimbalist on an early sound movie. I used these rolls to show off the capabilities of my Steinway XR. Condition: These Klavier Music Rolls (recuts) were purchased new by me sometime in the late ‘70s or early ‘80s. They were only ever played on my Steinway XR reproducing piano. The overall condition of all three roles is excellent. Please examine all the photos. I have endeavored to show the condition of the boxes, rolls, and leaders. If you have any questions concerning a roll, feel free to contact me. Watch for more rolls up for auction. I will be grouping lots according to the performer. Nearly all are what I call “European art music,” featuring the great students of Liszt and Leschetitzky, among other famous pianists. I do have some “popular hits of the day” that caught my fancy. I discovered the reproducing piano in 1971 while studying flute in London and coming across Frank Holland’s famous museum dedicated to automated musical instruments. He was quite a character! Subsequently, I owned and enjoyed three different pianos, including Duo-Art, Ampico, and Welte (Licensee). My roll purchases were mainly from the 70s into the early 90s, when I began to sell the pianos. I am just now getting around to selling my collection of reproducing piano rolls. The collection includes Duo-Art, Ampico, and Welte Licensee. Many are original, period rolls; but there are also many recuts. The selection of rolls shows my preferences as a professional orchestral flutist since 1967. The rolls have always been stored properly in closed cabinets, are in excellent condition, and are guaranteed to play well on your properly regulated reproducing piano. I will also be listing a few standard 88-note rolls that caught my fancy. Please note that I ship only to verified eBay addresses within the United States. That means no foreign sales. Piano rolls may be sent via the USPS as “media mail.” Should you prefer a faster service, priority mail can be arranged. And thanks for having a look.
