Hi Guys, I have the original PG Music Prog 'The Pianist which came with Classical Piano 215 Midi Files.

Later about 800 more such files were released but by the time I went to obtain these PG Music had discontinued the whole series including the original prog.

If anybody has the whole series and doesn't use it anymore, I will be happy to purchase the program (or just the midi files) from you for a sensible price.

If you prefer to talk to me outside the PG Music forum my email is ray.kinzler@talktalk.net

Thanks,

Ray7071

Ray,

Try contacting PG Music Sales support. I'm sure they can provide the missing files to you.

If you have not purchased product since 2014 you may want to create an online account so they can add the download link to your account.

I noticed in the webpage header that both online chat and the toll free telephone number are presently open.

Thanks Jim, just contacted the sales team but the files are no longer available directly from PG Music. Maybe somebody here will be able to help me or I might have luck on the web.

Bye for now.

If anyone out there has a copy of The Pianist Classic Volume 6
I would be willing to pay top dollar. Volume 6 was only available
for a a few months during 2000-2001 before the series was discontinued. I only just recently found out a volume 6 has been released and would
like to get ahold of it. It contains mostly early French midis. The midis are numbered 887-1087.

Thanks
matt

I don't believe that program runs on any modern operating system?? Do you have a working copy of the program?

These could be made into a Java GUI or an HTML page that will play the local midi files and read the song/midi number from the text files. These will then work on Mac/Win.
I think the pics could be updated, they must be contained in the exe file as I can't see then in the folder.

Here's some updated ones that work on Windows® XP / Vista / 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10 (32 or 64-bit)
Pianist Performance Series
Featuring the piano styles of today in over 250 "live-to-MIDI" performances by top contemporary pianists.

@011 Latest Gossip Blues. Against a single-note boogie bass that reaches up to the b7, the county style blues right hand four octaves higher declaims in discreet statements, almost like two old biddies gossiping across the fence. The right hand line becomes more continuous and soon the left hand moves into two-note chords in shuffle rhythm. When the left hand returns to the original pattern, the right hand keeps getting denser-as the gossip get juicier. Level of difficulty: 3. Pianist: Henry Butler. Picture of John Lee Hooker.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
