Unknown organette song
Unknown Song on Wilcox &
White "Symphonia" Organette Roll
by John Wolff (040719 MMDigest)
I would be most grateful if someone could help put a name to the tune
(or tunes) in the MIDI file attached. It's a rather graceful dance
roll in 4/4 time, which plays for a bit over 4 minutes. The original
is from an un-labelled 20-note roll for the Wilcox & White "Symphonia"
organette, so it probably dates from the 1880s or '90s.
The MIDI file was scanned directly from the roll. I would be grateful
to know the name of the tune and the type of dance, and I would be delighted
if someone could tell me the original roll number in either the Wilcox
& White or the Mechanical Orguinette (Aeolian) catalog.
Many thanks,
John Wolff.
