ere we index all the music and sound files found on The Piano Education Page site. While the MIDI sequences don't always do full justice to the same pieces played on an acoustic piano, we hope that you'll like them enough to want to play them yourself and obtain recordings of renditions on the piano. You can find out about each of the composers of these works by clicking on the link next to the composer's name. Both the biographies and the musical works themselves will open in a new window or tab, so that you can come back here easily to listen to or learn more. Simply close the new windows as you finish with them.
You can download any of the files below to your own computer to play at your leisure. These files are for your personal, non-commercial use. Please acknowledge the authors of the sequences and their composers, just as we have done, when you use them. If you're having trouble hearing the music, read Getting the Most from The Piano Education Page. For more extensive collections of MIDI music files of all kinds, check out the The Classical MIDI Resource.
We are constantly looking for MIDI and MP3 files of standard solo piano repertoire to offer free to those who visit the site every year. Where known, performers of MIDI sequences and MP3 files are always acknowledged on the pages. If you have such performances that you have recorded and would like to have heard by a large audience, let us know! We will also be happy to link the MIDI-related web sites of authors of sequences on this page. Just send us the URL.
To download a music file to your computer for later playing, just right click on the work you want to download, choose Save As.. or Save Target As... from the resulting pop-up menu, pick a directory from the resulting dialogue, and click OK to save the file to your hard disk. Most should be able to play the files offline by opening the Windows Explorer, finding the stored file and then double-clicking on the file name.
