Files made using Chris Hills's MidiPlay .

Marc-Antoine Charpentier

Messe des morts (H10)

You can freely and lawfully download a printable score for this Work from IMSLP - the Petrucci Music Library - though it may not be exactly the same as the one used to make the Midi Files below, and it probably won't be as good as a proper paid-for engraved and printed score.

There is an interesting performance of this Work by the Baroque Orchestra and Chamber Choir of the Trossingen University of Music under Kelvin Tsui on YouTube starting at here.

Here is a "clickable" Table of the available Midi Files for this Work.

These Midis can be played either using a conventional Midi Player, such as Chris Hills's MidiPlay or the Windows Media Player, or using the rather different Choral Music Tutor, which is a web app that plays MIDI files. Choral Music Tutor runs on any device - any Desktop PC (Windows or Mac), Tablet (Android or iPad) or Smartphone (Android or iPhone) - that can browse the internet. It is not an app that you have to download or install. There is more information about playing MIDI Files here.
