MIDI Song Links

(saved from the original Piano Wizard website)


Piano Wizard is like a musical browser, tapping into an ocean of content and 20 years of MIDI development. Below are several different types of resources for you, from links to MIDI file resources, to links to complementary MIDI programs or equipment, to links on music and musical education in general. Please forward us your favorite resources and help us all win.

This page was added quickly, and will grow and evolve as we weed out old sites, and add new ones. Do your own searches for any song you like, just go to Yahoo or Google and type in the song you want and the word "MIDI" and see what you can find. As far as quality, it is catch as catch can, but there is a lot of great music out there. Just be sure to copy the files to your My Songs folder in the game (You should have a link to that folder on your desktop, just copy and paste into that shortcut.)
