Midi files are small music files that are usually piano sounds or unsophisticated organ sounds. Occasionally you find very excellent orchestral midi sequences, most often of patriotic or seasonal music. These are very useful for websites on holiday occasions. The "Music Box Dancer" tune on the Tags and Javascript page is a midi sequence. The advantage to this type of music is that it has a small footprint and can be downloaded by a dial up user quickly. --- Clicking any of these links will open a new window.
