POLONAISE  OPUS 53  By Frederic Chopin

Entered from the computer keyboard by Pete Ness
using Sequencer Plus Mark III, Version 1


In the spirit of giving as well as receiving, this upload is
offered in return for several downloads I have obtained from the
WMUG bulletin board.  It should be technically accurate as far as
transposing sheet music via the computer keyboard goes, but I
can't guarantee someone with a better ear than mine won't find a
mistake.  If so, report it and I'll be glad to correct it.

To reduce the "mechnical" feel introduced by entering all notes
with a velocity of 64, I have adjusted some (but not all) of the
note velocities as well as a self-taught sheet music reader can 
-- there is still room for improvement and it is welcomed!

Another shortcoming -- the piece still needs sustained notes
(pedal) added to it.  Other than the above, I hope someone else
enjoys what was a two month part-time-evenings effort.


If you own a Mirage, Opus 53 sounds best transposed up one
octave, using the original Sound Diskette #1 Piano sound. I've
tried other piano samples and I always tend to return to the
original one.
