Wayne Stahnke did that quite adequately, in my opinion. My only doubt is
as to his use of a Boesendorfer piano, which so far as I know R never
played.
For other rolls, the series of CDs on the Pierian label are the best I
have heard.
(Although it is a bit odd to hear so many different pianists all playing
the same piano.)
