MIDI Practice Tracks:
*These were created using MIDI with the first violin part removed. I intensely dislike the midi orchestral instrument sounds, so I changed all the instruments to the piano patch. Caution: the first chord is rather loud.

Quarter Note = 80
Quarter Note = 90
Quarter Note = 100
Smart Metronome:
This is a drum track that specializes in exaggerating subdivisions. But don’t get the wrong impression, it’s also a lot of fun.
There’s a two bar count in, and then you rock and roll.
