MIDI files
Below is a small collection of MIDI files of the piano and saxophone parts of selected classical saxophone literature. Much of this literature is difficult to find recordings of, so these crude representations may offer the student some insight into the piece. These files are intended to be used as a practice aid. They are by no means a substitution for the real piano. For a more comprehensive listing of saxophone practice accompaniment, please visit www.saxmann.com. On that site, Patrick Mann has assembled an impressive list of recordings of MIDI accompaniment files that he sells for a very reasonable rate.
As far as I know, the following files are not in violation of any copyright laws. It is certainly not my intent to alienate the publishers of these fine works from their profits. If you have any MIDI files that you'd like to add to this list, please e-mail me at ward@wardbaxter.com.
