This is a long shot plea for for help.
Back in the 80's in the UK I had published, on "micronet" ( a user group on 
Prestel, pre-internet! ) , my renditions of Handel's Water Music and 
Purcell's Trumpet Tune. These were programed in AMPLE ( a forth like 
language) for the BBC Music 500 & 5000 synths made by Hybrid Technology.
Before selling all my Beeb gear I made cassette recordings of every thing I 
had done just in case I came over all nostalgic later.

Needless to say I did and found to my horror that these pieces had been 
taped over!
So this is the long shot, Have any of you good folk got a recording of 
either of these pieces being played by the BBC Music 5000 that you could 
e-mail me as an mp3 ?

I know this is a very slim chance, but you never know unless you try ;)

If you have anything for me please e-mail me at  music5000 at lenshanger.co.uk

cheers!
