Re: [disklavier] Re:coverting cd audio to midi

2008-12-14 by George F. Litterst

Good morning, everyone.

I agree with Wanda about the MIDI files that come from the publishers  
of various teaching books. There are thousands of such files, ranging  
from MIDI files with orchestrated accompaniments to piano solos.

Mitch, what is your son's playing level? What books and/or pieces is  
he currently studying? I may be able to suggest specific MIDI albums.

Regards,
PianoBench
