MIDI Files of Music Rolls at Web Site - Batch 26
By Terry Smythe

My 26th batch of music roll MIDI files are now available.  This
batch 26 (440 titles) contains a mix of music which should please
many people, including some neat popular tunes of the turn of the
last century.  In particular, some tunes from Wurlitzer 125 and
150 band organ rolls, some performances from British Duo-Art rolls,
and the Denishawn School of Dance 1927 series for dance instruction.
It's basic contents are as follows:

  Ampico performances - 10
  Duo-Art performances - 64
  Red-Welte performances - 2
  88 Note tunes - 171
  65 note tunes - 10
  Wurlitzer 150 band organ tunes - 153
  Wurlitzer 150 band organ tunes - 30

Total this batch - 440
