Here is a "clickable" Table of the available Midi Files for this Work.
In some sections a Chorus Voice - the Altos, for instance - gets divided into three Soloists (I, II and III), and in these Files each such Chorus Soloist has its own staff and track, and there are (below) individually-emphasised Files for each. In some sections a Chorus Voice is marked "Full", and I have assumed that the relevant Solo voices are singing that as well. In other sections the Chorus Voice is marked "Full" but shown in the score as a single Staff divided into two - and when this happens I have written the chorused Voice so that it is UNdivided, but for the corresponding Chorus Soloists I have assumed that the Solo I Voice sings the upper line while the Solo II and III voices sing the lower line.
I have also assumed that in 3: The Bridegroom the Soprano Solo is sung by the Soprano I Chorus Soloist, and if the "Sopranos" - the Chorus Sopranos - are also singing then I have given their Notes to the Soprano II & III Chorus Soloists as well.
And in the last section, where the Soprano solist comes in right at the end, in the rest I've given her the Soprano Chorus notes to keep her from getting bored.
In various places the Tenors and Basses are divided for a few bars - but I have NOT divided them in these Files.
