An Index of Bach Midi Files
Here is an index of midi files availiable on this [and, soon, other] web
sites:
From BWV 211, the “Coffee Cantata”
Movement 1-Recitative “Schweigt stille, plaudert
nicht”
Movement 2-Aria “Hat man nicht mit seinen Kindern”
(incomplete)
Movement 8-Aria “Heute noch” (incomplete) [one
of my favorite Bach arias]
From BWV 205, “Aeolus Appeased”
Movement 1-Chorus “Zerreisset, zersprenget, zertrümmert
die Gruft” [a fast-paced, boisterous chorus]
(incomplete)
Not from the secular cantatas:
From Bach’s sacred cantata BWV 1, “Wie Schön leuchtet der Morgenstern”
Movement 3-Aria “Erfüllet, ihr himmlischen”
[a splendid aria with an entrancing obbligato oboe]
By Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, a contemporary of Bach, from his Stabat
Mater
Movement ?-Duet “Inflammatus et Accensus” [a
heavenly duet, featured in the movie Jesus de Montréal]
