Classical Web Sites
By Terry Smythe

A friend of mine here in Winnipeg tipped me off on a "new"
web search engine:

     http://www.excite.com

This morning I went poking around in it, and within a few
minutes had found my way into a mammoth web site of music
related resources maintained by the University of Indiana
Music Library:

     http://www.music.indiana.edu/misc/music_resouces.html

It in turn led me to a web site of classical midi files:

     http://www.prs.net/~prs/midi.html

     select [5] index
     select [22] alphabetic "A"

     Scroll your way through the entire alphabet of composers.

At this last one, I downloaded about 40 of my favorite classical
.MID files and as I prepare this message, I'm happily listening
to all of them queued up through my SoundBlaster system.   I'll be
back there soon, going after many more.

Enjoy!
