Tune of the Month (JPG & midi)     Midi Files: Trad. Celtic & English Country Dances
These are all traditional (public domain) tunes, transcribed by Chubby Sparrow Music. Enjoy!
Note! Most browsers won't print the high rez versions properly using the browser window. See below for detailed printing instructions, and notes on midi files.
Tune of the Month March 2008: The Butterfly
  
   The Butterfly - Hi Rez JPG Image (200 dpi) (right-click & choose "save as")
   Low Rez JPG (72 dpi) (left-click & print directly from browser window)
   Midi file (left-click to play, right-click to save)
Notes on Printing and Saving Music: It's come to our attention that most browsers won't print JPG images properly if they're over 72 dpi, so we're now offering two versions: low rez and high rez. To print a high rez (better quality) version of the music, choose the high rez option, right click and choose "save target as" (or "save link as"). Save it to disk, open it on your computer and print that way. The low rez (72 dpi) versions can be printed directly using your browser window, however the quality of the print music won't be quite as good.
To play the midi files, simply left-click on the link. To save midis for later, right-click and choose "save link as". If you want to convert the midi files to a score, you will need basic score-writing software. There are numerous programs available for creating scores and/or manipulating midi files, such as Sibelius, Finale and Cakewalk, all of which have free demo versions and a range of products from novice to professional (our site doesn't endorse any product or company, these are just some of the ones that we're familiar with).
