Some of you will be able to click on the links below and hear the music directly.  Others will need to right-click on the link and "save target as" to your desktop (or somplace else on your hard drive).  Then click on the file name on your desktop, or "open with" whatever music-playing software you've got (Quicktime, RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, etc).

The various files available below are of diverse types, with diverse origins.  For some mysterious reason, clicking on the Bach links will play the music directly on my system, but I have to right-click-and-save the Vaughan Williams.  Good luck....


Enter His Gates (Ed Hart)

SATB, a tempo



Bach Cantata 191

The two Sicut versions give you a slower pace to start with and the prescribed pace to work towards as you learn the piece.  The two Gloria versions were required because the midi file creator didn't have the prescribed tempos all the way through the chorus.  These are decent midi files (found at the Sonoma Bach Choir site), but you will find a few mistakes and other compromises (i.e. 1/16 notes substituted for 1/32 notes). - Bob Hill

Vaughan Williams Fantasia

The Vaughan Williams midi files are also of a high quality, but with 9 voice and 4 accompanying channels, it was a chore to insure that each voice part was enhanced.  If you have trouble in this respect, email me at rghcmh2@bellsouth.net and I'll work on your part to better differentiate it from the mass of voice and instrumental channels - Bob Hill
