Thanks, but the one in the video I posted is a diferent one.

Incredible and now we have boogie woogie as well.

Thal runs to piano.

Frank, many thanks for all the Billy Mayerl. It's amazing to have all of this material available at one's fingertips.

You and Toby said something about keeping track of what had been posted. You may be interested in the Billy Mayerl Society. I'm not a member, but they have quite a bit of interesting material on their website:
http://www.billymayerlsociety.co.uk/

One of the things available on their site is an extensive list of compositions put together by Alex Hassan. I attached a copy..

I think I heard somewhere that the society would send copies of pieces in their collection to members for a nominal charge. No idea if that's true, but if there are any hardcore Mayerl fans out there it might be worth checking out.

Another interesting list of Mayerl compositions can be found here:

Hi Bill,

I'm glad you like the Mayerl scores! They were a lot of work to copy, but worth the price of admission to have on pdf format. Thanks for the links re. the Mayerl Society, etc. I'll check them out against what we have and see if there are any gaps to fill in.

All Best,

Frank

Thanks Bill,
I was aware of the first site and have been using their lists in my searches and as a check list.

My efforts to contact anyone on the site (a while back now) were not very successful.
I think the site is not very active but if you live in London it's probably worth being a member of the society.

I didn't know about the second site though,
Thanks for that.

Regards,

I am a member of the Mayerl Society and have been for a few years. Once a year I get a little newsletter and last time a CD.

I have not ordered any scores from them for a while, but they were very cheap.
