MIDI Hymns
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is probably the most popular way
to play music over the internet. There are several plug-ins available for
you to use with your browser. If your browser cannot handle MIDI, it will tell
you that you need to have a particular plug-in and will help you to find that
plug-in.
The internet contains a veritable gold mine of hymns that have been
computer generated or "sequenced" into MIDI files. To find them, use your
favorite search engine and search for "midi hymns". Most of these hymns are
available for use however you choose without any caveats. For others, the
owning web site wants to be acknowledged wherever their hymns are
used.
Listed below are some hymns that should be very familiar to most Lutherans.
To listen to them, just click on the name of the hymn. At the bottom of the
table you will find the credits that have been requested. Enjoy!
