Summer Class on Arranging Street Organ Music
By Jean Potteck

Bonjour Robbie,  I'm back now from teaching the summer training
course at Le Fraysse.  The training course went well, to the overall
satisfaction of the six participants.   [Ref. 010605 MMDigest]

The MIDI editing software "Harmony Assistant" delivered nearly all of
its possibilities, and the resulting cardboard book music made by the
students sounds good.  It was a very enriching experience.

Using a LCD transparent display [with an overhead projector], to show
the same image as the computer monitor screen, helped me a lot to
illustrate the training course, especially the screen displays of
"Harmony Assistant".

The training course will be held again next year, but offset by one
week because of school vacations.  Here are the training course dates:

 - "Organ building": 22-28 July 2002
 - "Make a crank organ (orgue de Barbarie)": 29 July-4 August 2002
 - "Arranging & punching cardboard book music": 5-11 August 2002

Amities,

Jean Potteck
