The following are excerpts from the Notepad/Comments screens contained in the
.WRK versions of the music sequence files on this diskette:



RPC061	The HAMMERKLAVIER Sonata, mv.1, Opus 106 by BEETHOVEN
		
	Step entered August 1994 by MSB

	This work is a precise reproduction of Beethoven's composition.
	He dedicated this 1818 work to Archduke Rudolph for his 13th birthday.
	The last 18 measures are a "Happy Birthday to Rudolphus" refrain.

	This is considered a difficult piece. Few pianists are able to reproduce
	it as written, so it is rarely heard publicly. There are passages with
	triplets and eighths played simultaneously as well as 5 note chords
	for both hands and long trills.

	The sequence occupies 7 tracks/channels with unique PAN values for each.
	The listening effect is that of sitting on the bench with the piano lid
	removed.

	Playing time as sequenced is 15:42.



RPC074	WHEN THEY BEGIN THE BEGUINE by COLE PORTER

	Step entered in July 1994 by MSB.

	This sequence uses patches that are not usually used at these octaves,
	e.g.:the "bowed glass" patch makes an excellent pedal "stop" for the
	organ. All patches are selected for maximum theatre organ realism.
	Controllers like "chorus" at maximum also add to the effect.

	This piece was especially arranged for the theatre organ and the tempo
	is quite fast. When fast pieces were played on real organs, the pneu-
	matics at times fell behind the pace of the performer. Large scale pipes
	also took a finite time to begin to speak. These characteristics are all
	simulated in this sequence.

	The last measure contains a series of control events that will restore
	your synthesizer to neutral ground. Playing time as sequenced is 3:58. 



RPC145	MOONLIGHT SERENADE, Composed and arranged by Glenn Miller
	
	Step entered in November 1993 by MSB.

	This sequence uses the patches that seem to reproduce the "Glenn Miller"
	sound which was the true hallmark of the Big Band era. Controllers that
	modify attack time and modulation ramps are employed for realism. The
	target synthesizer is a Roland SC55 but others will work as well.

	A sequence of control events in the last measure will restore your 
	synthesizer to neutral ground. You should always let the sequence run
	to completion to take advantage of this "reset".

	Playing time as sequenced is 4:07.

RPC155	PEER GYNT SUITE #1 by Edvard Grieg, his opus 46.

	Step entered in December 1993 by MSB.

	This sequence is a precise reproduction of the conductor's score. The 
	music is in four movements:

		MORGENSTIMMUNG - Morning Mood
		ASES TOD - The Death of Ase
		ANITRAS TANZ - Anitra's Dance
		IN DER HALLE des BERGKONIGS - In the Hall of the Mountain King

	The sequence uses 15 tracks/channels. Each group of orchestral
	instruments has a unique PAN value assigned, putting the listener at
	orchestra center. A series of events in the last measure will restore
	your synthesizer to a neutral state.

	Playing time as sequenced is 12:39.



RPC250a	Heaven's On Their Mind from Jesus Christ, Superstar by Rice & Webber

	Step entered in November 1993 by MSB.

	This "Rock Opera" was the rage 20 years ago. It was both irreverent 
	and religious.  It ran for many years and was even heard in some 
	churches.

	There are only a few patches in this sequence but the Complete work
	(RPC250) is rich in instruments and voices and is over 27 minutes in
	duration.

	Control events in the last measure will restore your synthesizer to a
	neutral condition. Always let the sequence complete itself to take
	advantage of this "reset".

	Playing time as sequenced is 4:22.
