Re: historic recording materials



Jordan, you've got LD?? Shouldn't surprise me, I guess, since you're
still using Xy. Quad, too?
I have a recording of Rachmaninov playing Rachmaninov recorded on
perforated paper rolls (by the Aeolian Company) in 1909, later
transcribed to vinyl, and now on minidisc. The method mechanically
recorded not only the notes and the timings, but the pressure the
pianist exerted on the keys.
