"Swanee" by George Gershwin Ampico Piano Roll P/B Clair & Pollock

man, how do you get your piano to do that?

[LivermoreFalls]

If this roll does indeed date from the 1920's, then we are most probably hearing the piano playing of Gershwin himself, playing his own music !

Yeah does anybody know if there is any sheet music for this specific arrangement?

[MrZygoticmynci]

Does anyone have the sheet music for this?

Somehow more musical than the Duo-Art issued with Gershwin at the keys. Ampico has a tad more lilt, subtlety, and rhythmic accuracy, I've noticed.
