Patrol Comique

[Sam Harris]

Does anyone happen to have the Clifford Essex "As played by Vess Ossman" arrangement of "Patrol Comique"?

The file in the music library seems to have a first page from an arrangement in G. The second page, second banjo part, and piano part don't match up, and look to be from the Clifford Essex/Vess Ossman arrangement in C.

Hi Sam,

I have hunted through the moldering pile of scores and have uploaded Vess Ossman's version of Patrol Comique to the MUSIC LIBRARY.

It should be available as soon when the database on the server updates. Sometimes the server takes a while to refresh so if the pages don't display, download as a PDF by clicking the download button.

Enjoy :-)

Thank you! I'll try and record this once I learn it.

The arrangement in G is from Dallas's "Universal Banjoist" album of  Parke Hunter arrangements, published in 1904. This album also contains an arrangement of 'American Patrol' made popular by Glenn Miller in the 1940s.
