Music reviews of Zez Confrey Piano Rolls and Scores
Music Review: Refreshing
Rating: 5 Stars
Zez Confrey's music is alternately full of joy and passion. The realizations of his piano rolls here are wholly enjoyable. The only way you can detect that the recording was based on a mechanical device is in the sameness of the volume level on some of the piano roll selections. Some of the piano rolls lack dynamics and other expression markings, which would have been added by the operator of the player piano. These markings have been tastefully supplied by Artis Wodehouse through a computer program. The Ampico company piano rolls have these markings, and have been transferred to the computer program with engaging directness. A number of lesser known, more esoteric works of Confrey have been played for this recording by Artis Wodehouse herself, and they are thoroughly enjoyable and refreshing, if without the bravura of Confrey's piano rolls. If you have never heard this music before, it summons up its era, the 1920's, with great elan. This disc transports you to another time and another aesthetic in a memorable way.
