Now I'm really confused.  I thought that the musical notes I've shown 
above are represented as unicode characters.  So I'd like to see how you 
jmf would represent them in cp1252.  Instead you give me an example 
showing a simple string manipulation which simply strips the characters 
that I want to see, then an even simpler example, clearly not what I've 
asked for.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask 
what you can do for our language.
