- Entered from an advertisement and review published in the <a rel="noopener noreferrer" class="external" href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030431/1919-04-24/ed-1/seq-18/" target="_blank">New York Sun ("Ornstein Competes with Ampico Piano", column 4)</a>, and a review in the New York Times.
According to the reviews, the first movement of the Mendelssohn concerto was first played from Leo Ornstein's recording on the Ampico Reproducing Piano, along with the orchestra, followed the second and third movements with Ornstein performing live with the orchestra. The Chopin nocturne was first performed live by Ornstein, after which he moved back from the piano and his Ampico recording was played. The reviews aren't clear about whether Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 13 was performed by Ornstein, or in an orchestration by the orchestra alone.
