- the Downloadable files

How do I view and print .PDF files? 
All music scores published here are PDF files (Adobe Portable Document Files).
Though created originally in Finale, available here as PDF files they can be view and printed with Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader is free software and can be downloaded and installed from: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.

How do I play MP3 music files? 
Windows' Media Player and Apple's QuickTime Player will both play MP3 files. One or both will typically be already installed on most computers. Windows' Media Player is part of Windows' operating system and QuickTime is available at: 
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ . These reasonably accurate MP3 music files are not recordings, but are generated by Finale from the notation scores, using vocal "Ah"s instead of words for the SAB choral harmonies, and where a keyboard accompnimed is supplied, are accompanied with a piano sound patch. Actual tempos used will depend on acoustics, room size and one's musical tastes.
