Besides his famous 1920s novelty works (including \"Kitten on the Keys\"), there are many wonderful, lesser-known gems of remarkable quality included here from later in his career. Appearing for the first time in print are transcriptions of one of his disc recordings (\"Poor Buttermilk\") and two of his player piano roll arrangements (\"My Pet\" and \"Humorestless\"). Many of Confrey's later works have long been out of print and are included here for the first time in decades.","brand":"Alfred Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44578110570632,"sku":"00-40511","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/6104\/0520\/files\/00-40511_large_f028745b-aa25-46dd-afe0-39e758508b85.jpg?v=1779254906"},{"product_id":"novelty-masterpieces-of-the-gershwin-era-the-music-of-zez-confrey-pauline-alpert-and-rube-bloom-06-490920","title":"Novelty Masterpieces of the Gershwin Era: The Music of Zez Confrey, Pauline Alpert and Rube Bloom: Piano Book","description":"This original collection of piano tunes from the 1920s and 30s features pieces by three of the era's most popular piano roll and novelty song artists: Zez Confrey, Pauline Alpert and Rube Bloom.
