There are two types of files in these archives:

1. MP3 Files - These files provide high quality sound and can be played by your computer, your home stereo system or even through your phone or tablet.

2. Midi Files - These files are played with a midi player. A midi player can either be built in to your computer or connected to your computer. The midi player provides its own sounds, so it can either sound great... or terrible. It all depends on the sounds that come with the midi player.  

There are many different ways to play the music files in these archives:

1. Play either the DVD or the thumb drive on your computer and use your computer speakers for the sound.
2. Load the files to your phone, tablet or cloud.  You can then broadcast the music via bluetooth or wifi to your bluetooth speakers or sound system.
3. You can play the files on a DVD player, but only ones that can handle MP3 files and folders.  If you are planning to use a DVD player or stereo, test it first to make sure it can handle MP3 files and folders.  Most stereos that claim to play Mp3 files cannot handle folders.  We do not recommend playing the archives this way.
4. If your sound system has a USB port, you can play directly from the thumb drive.  Test it first to make sure it can handle folders.
5. Load the midi files onto a midi keyboard

​These are just a few suggestions.  Getting the music from the MP3 or MIDI files to your speakers is limited only by technology and your imagination.


Here is an ambitious example....  Our good friend, Robert Ernenwein, has cloud storage.  If you don't back up your files to the cloud, you should consider it.  There are many free options and the ones that cost money don't cost very much.

Robert uploaded the contents of the Trumpet sheet music archive, volume 1, to his cloud storage.  He also uploaded the contents of the Trumpet sound files archive to his cloud storage.

Robert has a tablet.  You can get one for around $200.00 these days and they are really indispensable if you have tons of music to read through.  Robert accesses his Trumpet pdf files using his tablet connected to his cloud storage.  Now he can see the sheet music on his tablet.

Robert has a Fire Stick attached to his TV.  He could also use a Roku or an Apple TV or any other way to connect his TV to the internet.  Using this connection to the web, he is able to access the Trumpet sound files that he loaded to his cloud storage.  Now he can play the sound files through the speakers on his TV. 

Melissa has gone a slightly different route.  She loaded her Oboe sheet music archive directly on to her tablet.  She doesn't even bother with paper music anymore.  Then she loaded the contents of the Oboe sound files archive to her phone.  She bought an inexpensive Bluetooth amplifier and now she broadcasts her sound files from her phone to her Bluetooth amplifier.

How to Use This Music

Each piece of music has two files.  The first file is the complete recording with the solo instrument and piano (or orchestra or chamber ensemble).  The second file is the piano (or orchestra or ensemble) alone.  Each version has identical tempos.

We recommend that you first listen to the recording we have provided.  Get a feel for the tempo and how the different parts work with each other.  Sometimes the beat is difficult to make out and you need to listen carefully to subtle chord changes.  Many of the pieces include taps to get you started or to help you through parts where there is no accompaniment.

Get out your pencil and mark up your music.  The more you write, the better.  Remember, this accompanist won't follow you.  YOU have to follow it!

If your first attempt to play with the accompaniment doesn't go well, keep trying!  It takes practice to play well with an accompanist.  Even when playing with a live person!

Changing the Tempo

Most of the music in this collection has been created at the correct tempo or slightly under tempo.  Even so, it may be too fast or too slow for your taste or ability.  No need to worry!  Many of the pieces have alternative versions recorded at 15% slower.  Enough to take the edge off while still sounding good.  There is also lots of software available online designed to change the tempo of both MP3 and MIDI files.  You have options....
