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".
