(Note: The MIDI files are just a reference for learning pitches. While I have tried to create a file that is as close to the interpretation as I could, the MIDI files are still very mechanical. Do NOT memorize the speed or loudness or character of notes; these items are open to much interpretation. Keeping your eyes on the conductor will help bring out the artistic aspect of the music.)
