[NOTE ON MIDI FILES]
Depending on your browser, the MIDI files accompanying each piece of music may play when clicked, or may need to be downloaded and played in a separate application.
The “files” directory containing the MIDI samples also includes the musical notation in lilypond (.ly) format. These are simplified versions of the music as printed, omitting lyrics and dynamic marks. The meter is as printed, except that most songs marked 6/8 in the printed text were changed to 3/4.
Please note that these files are intended only to give a rough approximation of each melody. All musical selections were originally vocal, some with drum accompaniment. The three MIDI “instruments” were selected to offer the user a choice of sounds, and are not intended to be authentic.
