Rehearsal Downloads

Welcome to our downloads section.

Information that you need to know and understand.

Catalogue structure is as follows:-

Composer > Work > Voice (includes Choir, Soloist etc)

Samples

For each work we provide audio samples for you to listen to, there is no need for registration. You can also download the samples by right clicking the file name below the player and saving to a location of your choice on your computer. These are not in zip files.

Why Download?

There are several reasons why downloading is one of the best options:

• Cost effective (Considerably cheaper than purchasing CDs and paying for their postage)
• You have access to the downloads as soon as they are purchased
• No waiting for the post to arrive (unless paid for by eCheque)
• Excellent choice for a last minute decision, when you need to learn your notes urgently
• Ready for mp3 players, so that you can learn your notes while on the move
• Sometimes downloads have bonus tracks that cannot fit on to CDs. (Zadok the Priest is an example)

We provide the Bach Cantata BWV 48 Ich elender Mensch, wer wird mich erlösen, and the Beethoven Choral Fantasy completely free of charge, (subject to our Conditions of Use) so that you can fully experience how the site operates. Please enjoy these with our compliments.

Download Files

Obtaining downloads through the cart are provided as ZIP files and can easily be extracted to a folder of your choice on your computer. We chose the options of zip to distribute the music because in the long run it is less work for you, the down-loader. Because of this the download files are larger, but in the age of broadband this is not so much of a problem. There are many good free download manager programs such as Download Accelerator or Free Download Manager that can resume downloading in the event of disconnection. These can run in the background while you are doing other things on your computer.

We strongly recommend that you use a download management program such as those mentioned, as they are usually much more reliable than the one provided in the operating system or browser shell. We also recommend downloading to a computer and not a mobile device.

Our MP3's are CD quality bit-rate. We have tested burning our MP3s with NERO, and recommend this to be the best software. Whatever CD burning software you use, please refer to your software instructions on how to make Audio CD's.

Our MP3s are compatible with all good devices that support the MP3 format.

You should refer to your device instructions for any support in using mobile devices. Especially in transferring files to them and/or playing them.  Any help needed for these devices should come from the device manufacturer/supplier. Note Perfect does not provide methodology support for using mobile devices, in other words, we cannot teach you to use your device. We do have some links to mobile device assistance in our Frequently Asked Questions.

As with any product you should exercise due diligence before you buy and we provide more than enough information and files for you to do this. You can test your device by ordering any of our free products.(The details are on the home page).
