Albert Frederic Stoessel was an American composer, violinist and conductor. He was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1894. He studied music at the Berlin Hochschule as a pupil of Emanuel Wirth and Willy Hess. At 19 he began his professional playing career with the Hess String Quartet, and toured as a violin soloist in Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Germany. He returned to the United States in 1915 for a concert tour, appeared with the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and lived in Boston until 1917 while pursuing his career as a violinist and composer.

Illustrated extended roll leader
Aeolian's top-of-the-range Duo-Art Running Comment Series Illustrated rolls are quite difficult to find today. The roll was issued by The Aeolian Company, Great Britain.
The large roll is in good condition. It plays very well. The original box is in used condition, some scuffs commensurate with its age. Please view close-up images.
