J.H. Ross & Co.

History

Established by Jasper Hazen Ross in Philadelphia by 1870. The firm relocated to New York around 1873-1874 and disappeared from the historical record between 1888 and 1890. Ross primarily published dance music for orchestra. Most works were so arranged as to be performed by orchestras of 6, 9, and 14 instruments or "full" orchestra.
