Vashon Chorale MIDI rehearsal samples:

The links in the table below open MIDI files for the various sections.  Some MIDI players are better than others (for instance, some let you use a slider to set where you are in the piece, some don't.)  Microsoft's Media Player, if you don't have it already, is available for download from their web site, as is Real Player, and others probably are, too.

If you really want to have control of how the files play, try downloading "VanBasco Karaoke" shareware.  It will let you select which tracks you want to play, adjust the speed as you wish, and control the volumes independently.  You might want to create a playlist of these files.  It's very cool...give it a try.

Cost:  It takes me several hours to create these rehearsal samples.  If you find them useful, I would appreciate knowing it, and would not turn down a small contribution to my retirement fund (a couple $$ from enough people would cover it).  Find me (Dennis Drewes) in the tenor section at rehearsal, or use the PayPal link below.   Thanks!!
