rt,
Thanks for the suggestions - today all I hear after recording from this site
is a xylophone kind of tones when I play it back, so I think it must be that
its a problem with my machine or setup for recording - I can record on the computer
into a wav file and hear it ok, and can convert to mp3 also but since w2000 it might not be ok with this software; I'll try to attach
the mp3 I separately created here - it did not let me attach the .wav file.
in the meantime will try to find some public site that would let me post the
mp3 file, so that it could just be linked to from this forum.
again sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi! Were you able to hear it right after recording it? In that case, could you please try again and make sure you copy the entire hash code between the "audio" tags?
If you were not able to replay your recording even before pasting it into the forum, there might be an issue with your audio recording equipment.

pointer to the clip I recorded is attached.
This is a classical piece that was either a theme or incidental music from an
old radio show from the late 1930s or early 1940s - it was heard/remembered
on more than one of these shows, so its felt this was not just a piece that was
heard on a certain show.
(there is no memory of what the show might have been and was very young at the time)
It was played by an orchestra or perhaps smaller group of instruments.
There were no vocals.
Thanks for your help.

How to insert music:
Add a bit of sheet music, along with a MIDI file, simply by entering note names in Lilypond syntax between the [L] and [/L] tags.
For example, you can try what happens if you enter: [l]g'4 g'4 d''4 d''4 e''4 e''4 d''2[/l] (use the Preview function if you don't actually want to post this).
You can create these lists of note names by clicking on piano keys here.
How to post an audio recording:
If you just want to sing, whistle, or play a melody so that other forum visitors can hear it, follow these steps:
- Record your audio here.
- You should notice a 32-character hash code, something like: 2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf
- copy this hash code and paste it into a forum post, enclosed in the audio tags, for example: [audio]2a40281c5001c5a7d8c9f57fcdeccfaf[/audio]
How to mark a thread as solved:
If the original question in a thread is solved, please mark it as solved using the "solved" icon (or by just typing [solved] into your post). This makes life easier for people who are willing to identify melodies, since unsolved problems are easier to spot that way. If a problem turns out to not be solved after all, just write [/solved] in a new post, and the thread will be labeled accordingly.
