We present simultaneous high-speed B- and K-band photometric observations of the rapidly oscillating Ap star HD 217522. Oscillations with a period of 13.8 min and an amplitude of 2.00 mmag are detectable in the B data. We place an upper limit of 0.63 mmag on the semi-amplitude of K-band oscillations with the same period. This upper limit is drawn from a conservative analysis of the entire data set. Analyses of the best subsets of the data suggest the possible presence of rapid oscillations, and we argue that further observations with a lower noise level are desirable.
