Michael Preuß & Co. GmbH published a very extensive repertoire of artist piano rolls for the 88-note Pianola beginning in 1923. All Artist Rolls were also available in a “combined” version, meaning they included additional perforations for use on automatic reproducing pianos. Many accomplished pianists recorded music for this series, including Oswin Keller and Michael von Zadora. The catalog comprises approximately 200 pages. In the first section, the musical works are listed by composer; in the second section, by title. We offer a PDF copy of this rare catalog for research and scholarly use for EUR 60.00.
