A collection of Seven Hupfeld high quality artist hand played accentuated 88-note piano rolls.
These 88-note rolls contain historic recordings captured by the Hupfeld Company of Leipzig between 1906 and 1925. The rolls (Registered trademark Animatic) are fully compatible with all standard 88-note player pianos and Duo-Art and Ampico reproducing pianos set to the 88 mode.
The roll leaders are often made of green paper. Recorded Animatic rolls are labelled "Künstler-Rolle", most often including the pianist’s signature of the roll label and piano roll label and often a photo of the artist. Many were compositions are played by the composers.
Hupfeld/ Animatic rolls also have theme perforations identical to the Aeolian "Themodist" system and these will operate on any player fitted with that kind of theme system.
Additionally, the rolls all have full auto-sustain pedal tracks.
Hupfeld rolls are the finest of all hand-played rolls issued. The punching step rate used to make these is as high as 90-steps-per-inch giving over three times the recording resolution when compared against many Aeolian and other recordings.
Widely regarded in Europe as one of the most sought-after roll-types from both a quality and musicological perspective, they are almost unknown in the US as Hupfeld never marketed these to America ever having determined they had enough trade worldwide already.
The rolls are compatible with all 88-note player pianos. Also, Duo-Art and Ampico players set at 88 mode.
