This is a sequence of the finale from Rimsky-Korsakov's
suite from his opera "Coq d'Or" (Golden Cockerel), subtitled
"The Marriage Feast and the Lamentable End of King Dodon".

   It has been sequenced for the Proteus 2. I have used the
One Stop Music Shop sound card for the Piccolo and Timpani
as the score requires many instruments.  However, you may be able to
shoehorn these two tracks into a 16-channel MIDI setup.  Note
that I have transposed up an octave the entire Piccolo track
as OSMS does not automatically transpose up this instrument like
the Proteus 2 does.  Also, those using Bars&Pipes Professional
without a Proteus 2 will notice that I have transposed up an
octave the Trombones&Tuba track since the Proteus 2 transposes
this program down an octave to accomodate the tuba. Bars&Pipes
Professional users will see the score as it appears on paper
and a Tranpose Tool at the end of each track to convert the
output to the correct pitch. In the .MID version, all tracks
have been already transposed as if the score were in C.
A lot of tracks are necessary as Rimsky-Korsakov requires
instrument changes in both the Clarinets and Bass Clarinet
as well as two types of Trumpets.

   Note to Proteus 2 owners: I use program 64 for the English
Horn which uses a fuller range as E-mu did not sample the instrument
throughout its entire playable range.  Also, you will notice
program changes in the Horns track between a horn section and
soft and loud horns.
