Nice One Adam - what is the piece being played on the piano? Neil

on the piano is Rachmaninoff's "Suite for Two Pianos". The roll was made by Mike Boyd / Rex Lawson on the old surviving Aeolian perforator. Sadly the perforator appears to be now entombed as a static exhibit in the new Musical Museum at Brentford, London. Its punch head and die plate assembly is worn and needs work but it looks like it'll be a very long time (if ever) that it works again. The masters for the roll were done electronically and still exist with Rex Lawson.
