I have been asked to write a musical work for band, drawing upon tunes associted with the eight US Presidents in which we Virginians glory. I have been fortunate to find sheet music for six of them, and audio tracks for two more. But for those two, it would be a lot easier for me to work from printed music rather than transcribing the sound, ala-Mozart.
I have not been able to tease anything out of the online offerings of The Library of Congress, The Library of Virginia, or the Virginia Historical Society. But I suspect that somebody more technically savvy than I might find them. The two songs are":
"Monroe's The Man", published about 1817
"Wilson's The One", published about 1913
Your reward will be a MIDI MP3 production of a genuine imitation computer generated 1914 Jazz Band playing the Wilson tune.
Thanks,
Randy Cabell
