NEW ARTECHO BULLETIN
Valuable Additions to Reproducing Piano Library
Issued by Q R S Music Company.
The Artecho bulletin of reproducing player rolls
for February has been issued by the Q R S Music
Co., Chicago. The following is the list with the
name of the recording artist printed in parenthesis:
R-2035—Impromptu, Op. 142, No. 4 (F Minor),
Franz Schubert (Eugen d'Albert). This impromptu
by Shubert is a gem, clear-cut and perfect, and not a
note could be spared. Of such a piece d'Albert is the
ideal interpreter, and his masculine and intrepid style
insures a perfect presentation of the composer's mood.
R-2036—Gavotte, W. Sapellnikoff (played by the
composer). The number is given a virtuoso treat-
ment in accordance with the spirit and resources of
the modern pianoforte.
