During our search for Christmas tunes we also found these wonderful classic ragtime midi files. We thank Warren Trachtman at his amazing site for these selections.

These songs are .mid files and should play on whatever program on your computer supports midi-sequenced files. The files are reasonably small but still can take from several seconds to about a minute to load depending on the speed of your Internet connection.

If you use either Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer, here's more than you wanted to know about where these files could go on your computer:

If you left-click on a midi file link on the table below it will load into the disk Cache area for your browser and should automatically start a player. Make sure to give it a little time to download.
If you would like to have more control over where the file loads right-click on the link and you can use the "save-link-as" feature of the browser.
If you would like all of the files, we have provided a self-extracting zip which you may download. After it is downloaded to a folder (directory) simply double-click on it to extract the files: ragtunes.exe. Then choose the folder to which you would like your ragtime midi files to be extracted. To play a file simply double-click on it. If that doesn't work there is an excellent midi trouble-shooting page at Warren's site
