Free Music Links

Andrew Purdam's Page - a very interesting site, including free music (of course) along with neat java "science project" applets.

Boddo's Homepage - Adam Bodkin's biggest claim to fame is sequencing not just one, but two complete Jethro Tull albums in NoteWorthy Composer -- "Thick as a Brick" and "A Passion Play."

Ramon Pajares Box's Classical Midi Files - A wonderful compendium of classical sequences performed using NoteWorthy Composer. Even though most are not suitable for printing, the midi performances are sequenced with obvious care and attention. Ramon also offers an excellent list of links to other classical midi sites.

The REC Music Foundation - This interesting site offers two unusual and useful projects: "Classical Midi with Words" is a collection of classical Karaoke files, and "Classical Lieder Page" offers the lyrics for a broad range of songs and Lieder, in many cases with translations to various languages.

Arthur Maximenko is a young and very talented young composer in Belarus, whose music reflects a big heart and a keen ear. While I don't normally link to other mp3.com sites (there's just so much good stuff out there), there was something about Arthur's music that just grabbed me.

Oboe music: Juozas Rimas   Prof. Rimas in Lithuania demonstrates just how hauntingly lovely the oboe can sound. A great way to hear what this instrument is capable of, in a solo context. Click here to go directly to his mp3.com site.

Accordion-Online.de / Akkordeon-Online.de   Like the viola, the accordion is oft-maligned and deserves a bit of special treatment. Here is a good resource page offering mp3 recordings, scores in GIF format, and an accordion links page.
