MIDI FILES

Welcome to the midi files page.  This page was last updated on August 28, 2005. On this page you will find midi files of songs composed by James F. Burke. Most are songs that he had published but did not record. A very special thanks to former Burke student Dr. James Klages for the midi file "Zorita", Mr. Malcolm McDuffee for the sheet music to "The Runaway Trumpet" and Mr. Paul Freitas for the sheet music to "Serenade in 6/8".
