[@moniquezhang1660]

This is a lovely vintage melody! I listen to piano rolls every day and this is one of my favorite!

[@MrCrowebobby]

It's amazing how some simple tunes are just so infectious.

[@patrickkeehnel157]

Oh, my gosh! I haven't heard this roll in decades! Thank you!

[@PiotrBarcz]

Seeing a piano this beautiful is making me want to cry...

[@mstalcup]

I particularly like the arranging and the hand-played natural swing.

[@geraldjampol3120]

Great playing, terrific arrangement! One of Henderson's best tunes.

[@joybreeden366]

THANK YOU....love these great American songbook tunes....

[@Nunofurdambiznez]

Pre-WWI Webers were THE finest pianos made.. bar NONE! no wonder this sounds so great, it's a Weber!

[@scottgordon2588]

Nice sounding Weber, excellent expression from the DA. It always nice to hear a well tuned piano

[@hankaustin7091]

there's NOTHING like the sound of a Weber piano!! I had a Weber upright made in 1888, was the greatest piano I owned, until I fell on hard times and had to sell it.. I miss it every damn day

[@hankaustin7091]

That piano has a fantastic tone!!

[@PiotrBarcz]

Old style sound huh? I like it too.

[@hankaustin7091]

well no wonder it has such a fantastic tone, it's a WEBER!! The best there is!

[@jaytaylor7740]

Would love a cd of these songs and arrangements. Thanks for posting.

I'm a transcriber, for a fair price, I do the transcription of works like this

[@egpetridis]

Thank you, especially for providing the stereo recording!

[@AmpicoGPM]

You're welcome!

One of the favorites of Julius Carl Jr. Laemmle, scion of Universal Pictures president Carl Laemmle. Jr. brought into being one of the first color motion pictures to usher in the great age of jazz, with his Paul Whiteman, King of Jazz in 1930.

I google this contagious tune hoping this video will come up. Instead I see a can of Valspar (paint)!

😂🤣😂🤣

[@PiotrBarcz]

A friend of mine has a George Steck Duo-Art that I adore. The controls on this piano are the same as that one. Steinway, I have noticed, has a different interface.

[@TheBill3333]

Duo-Art system records the dynamics and pedal data but I don't hear much change in the recording. Some video cameras automatically compress the loud passages which help clarity by avoiding tape saturation in the old days. Great tune, good to hear it again.

[@PiotrBarcz]

I agree that the expression isn't very obvious but you can tell that the snake bite holes are accenting the main melody a bit. I love this recording the best out of all the duo-art rolls I've heard.

[@andrewbarrett1537]

I'm hearing the dynamics pretty well in this. They're subtle and mostly in a mezzo range but there are a bunch of them and I hear them coming through well.

[@larryjohnson6385]

Sounds awesome 👍

[@juliamcintyre5012]

Wonderful!

Gene Kerwin is the pseudonym of Frank Milne, fun fact of the day.

[@danielmkubacki]

[@liamvnbw]

I remember Marlene Dietrich sang this in one of her films, when she was very young

[@PiotrBarcz]

PLEASE, PLEASE, tell me where I can buy, either this roll or the flat 88 note QRS roll of this arrangement! I have a player and I really, REALLY want this roll!!!

[@alexandrericardothiesen4394]

maravilhoso

[@PiotrBarcz]

I have a midi scan of this roll if anyone wants it, I can send it, my email is on the about page of my channel.

[@Folboi]

What happens if u play a duo art roll on a welte, or an ampico roll on a duo art. Like does stuff change or is it the sane

[@rowanbelt3612]

I would expect that you would get a bunch of messed up dynamics, because the coding system is quite different but uses the same perforations at the end of the rolls. So basically the dynamics would be changing erratically because the system would be reacting to codings not written in its “language” so to speak.

[@michaelmott8086]

I think that it's DeSylva, not DeSylvia.

[@PiotrBarcz]

Steinway should go hide their trash in a nuclear fallout dump because THIS is what a grand piano should sound like!
