Famous Popular Pianists from the 1920S Top Popular music – Compilation of Welte, Ampico and Duo-Art recordings Pianist photos Contents by title Introduction This package combines all presently available MIDI files of popular piano roll music for the Ampico, Duo-Art and Welte reproducing pianos. Bringing this package together required renaming some of the files to achieve consistency. In the case of Hits of the Day, these are numbered from 00 to 38, to make them list in numerical and therefore date order. Reference to original catalogues is therefore best done using roll numbers rather than titles. Many of these rolls were issued in the 1930s, when Aeolian took over Ampico, and a combined roll recording studio was established. This meant a lot of the recordings made during this time were issued on Welte Licensee, Duo-Art and Ampico rolls. When compiling this package, we have taken care to ensure there are no duplicate recordings. These exist under the separate Duo- Art and Ampico packages, where duplication is not a consideration, unless you were to purchase both packages. Duplication mainly applies to popular music, as there were only a few instances of a classical recording being issued for all instruments. This package includes numerous songs from the 1920s as well as those from the ‘30s. The playing style on the earlier rolls differs from the later offerings, showing the change in musical style as the 20th century moved on. There are more Ampico than Duo-Art roll recordings in this package, as these rolls are more generally available. They are also highly regarded by many collectors for their clever arrangements. You will notice that some pianists, such as Victor Arden made a lot of roll recordings. There are also many instances of a pianist recording under a pseudonym, in particular rolls recorded by veteran artist Frank Milne. There were fewer popular-style recording artists than classical pianists, and the use of pseudonyms was done by all roll companies to suggest a greater line-up of pianists. Recordings allegedly made by Ferdie Grofe and Vincent Lopez were in fact made by in-house pianists according to the arrangements supplied by Grofe and Lopez. All of the rolls made by Lopez are labelled ‘assisted.’ In real life, Grofe was known as an arranger (he did the orchestral arrangement of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue) and Lopez was a band leader who “only played a few tinkly treble notes on the piano”. The most commonly used pseudonyms are Victor Lane and Harry Shipman, names borrowed by several Ampico artists. An unusual situation occurs with Corrine de Bert, a name also shared among several artists. However, records show that Corrine de Bert was a real pianist who recorded on piano roll, albeit in the teens of the 20th century. It is believed that rolls recorded in the 1920s and later under this name are by pianists using the pseudonym. The table on the next page lists known pseudonyms applicable to this set of MIDI files. The pianists forming the Original Piano Trio (an actual group that performed live) are listed in the table. Photos of some of the pianists are also shown, proving they were indeed real. 1 Top Pianist photos Real name Pseudonyms Adam Carroll Cal Adams Corrine de Bert - limited Giuseppi Collini Harry Shipman Victor Lane (from c.1929) Angelico Valerio Harry Shipman - one roll Edgar Fairchild Milton Suskind (natal name) Victor Arden Corrine de Bert Pauline Alpert (1905–1988)) (1899-1973) Enrico Lavarro Harry Shipman - limited Henri Lefevre Herbert Cooke Sascha Baronoff Original Piano Trio (OPT) – part of Frank Milne Bob Edgeworth Edwin Lester Ernest Leith Gomez Jaysnoff Sisters Jeremy Lawrence Noel Sherry Robert Armbruster Felix Arndt Ralph Addison (1897-1994) (1889-1918) Robert Farquhar Robert Joyce Sherry Brothers Herbert Clair Harry Shipman Original Piano Trio (OPT) – part of Howard Brockway Al Sterling Andrei Kmita George Dilworth Original Piano Trio (OPT) – part of J.

Bolig American Discography Project UC Santa Barbara Library © 2017 John R. Bolig. All rights reserved. ii The Victor Discography Series By John R. Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items.

  • The Roseland Ballroom
    The Roseland Ballroom Roseland was founded initially in Philadelphia in 1917 by Louis Brecker. In 1919, it was moved to 1658 Broadway at 51st Street in New York. It was a "whites only" dance club called the "home of refined dancing", famed for the "society orchestra" groups that played there. The all-white, ballroom-dancing atmosphere gradually changed with the popularity of hot jazz, as played by African American bands on the New York nightclub scene. Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Chick Webb, Vincent Lopez, Harry James, Tommy Dorsey, and Glenn Miller were just some of the bands that played at the Roseland. As the club grew older, Brecker attempted to formalize the dancing more by having hostesses dance for 11¢ a dance or $1.50 a half-hour, with tuxedoed bouncers keeping order. It was to work its way into stories by Ring Lardner, Sherwood Anderson, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and John O'Hara. The original New York Roseland was torn down in 1956 and it moved to its new venue on West 52nd, a building that Brecker earlier had converted from an ice-skating rink to a roller-skating rink. A thousand skaters showed up on opening night at the 80-by-200-foot rink on November 29, 1922. Iceland went bankrupt in 1932 and the rink opened as the Gay Blades Ice Rink. Brecker took it over in the 1950s and converted it to roller-skating. In 1974, Brecker told The New York Times, "Cheek-to- cheek dancing, that's what this place is all about." Brecker sold the building in 1981 to Albert Ginsberg.
