     This file was originally edited to produce a music roll for a Wurlitzer 165 band organ.  Unfortunately, no one has a computer- controlled perforator for this format, and I'm too lazy to cut it with a knife.  So I enlisted the skills of David Wasson and George Bogatko to modify my Midi file for performance with the Roland Sound Canvas synthesizer.  We think it sounds real good -- not quite like a big Wurlitzer organ, but still exciting.  You are encouraged to experiment with the "voicing and registration" for your performance at home!
     Included in the archive is a lengthy "liner notes" about the music and an interesting history of the band organ.  Plug in your synth, turn up the volume, and enjoy a rousing "Military Band Organ Performance".
