Sheila -

Back in the 30's and 40's my mother played it (by ear) on the piano, but I
don't know if she ever had the sheet music for it.

I sure wish that I had inherited her improvisation abilities and her ability
to play and harmonize any tune on the piano that she wanted to.

Just a simple question, out of curiosity....

I'm a member of the Repasz Band of Williamsport, PA. From what I've been
told, the Repasz Band is fairly well known, especially because of the Repasz
Band March, which was a popular tune in its day, and has even been heard on
TV shows, including M*A*S*H and the Drew Carey Show.

Back to the question. All I want to know is, have any of you here heard of
the Repasz Band or the Repasz Band March? Just a little question to verify
what I was told.

Thanks a million!

Flutefully yours,
Sheila
