licence from CCLI:

Lyrics     Score    Orchestrated Midi-files  Piano Midi-files 

  Four compact disks of the music written and performed by Michael 
  are now available to purchase.

A few, simple, technical details:

There are two midi files for many of the songs – one a simple piano version, (sometimes with instrumental
parts added – flute, oboe, clarinet, etc.), the other an 'orchestrated’ version with up to eight or more
channels in stereo.  Both versions include all the verses so they can be used to accompany the singing of
the songs or hymns. Alternatively the pdf file of the musical score enables a pianist, keyboard player or
organist to play the songs instead.

 The midi-files are all Type 1 midi-files and have been produced using a GS Standard Keyboard.  They can
be downloaded and played on a computer using Windows Media Player (provided you have a
soundcard, and all modern computers do!) The midi-files can then be copied on to a floppy disc or CD-
Rom and loaded into a digital keyboard or organ if it has a disc drive.  Assuming it is GS Standard
keyboard all the instruments will play as planned! 

 If the keyboard or organ does not have a disc drive but it is GS Standard all is not lost provided it has
Midi In and Midi Out sockets. A simple Midi Interface such as the EV10 from Evolution Electronics Ltd
can be inserted into the USB socket of a laptop computer with midi cables to the keyboard. The midi-files
can then be played from the laptop through the keyboard or organ.

Michael is happy to hear from you via e-mail if you like his songs and intend to use them in public worship.
