Program-generated music for pipe organ
I'm working on a computer program that composes and plays music entirely on its own. I think the music is
interesting and some of it is enjoyable.

Lively rhythmic counterpoint in G Major.
I like this 7 minute piece and have listened to it a lot. It is an amazingly rich source of
counterpoint ideas, with unusual rhythms and note durations in appealing combinations that a human composer wouldn't think
of. |

Pleasant, leisurely, church-like counterpoint. Toward the end
is a key and mode change.

Weird Electronic Music
"In the moment" music that seems to focus attention and can be used in meditation although not serene.

Suspenseful start with single notes varying in instrumentation; sections of low notes and sound effects; migrates through
moods at greater length with fewer abrupt tempo and key changes than #10 above, more continuity.

MP3 Download Troubleshooting
The MP3 files are in 22050Hz 32Kbps constant bitrate CBR format. If you experience browser or player incompatibility,
tell me so I
can make any needed adjustments or explain here how to avoid the
problem.
Streaming audio
When you stream a file, your browser downloads the small .m3u text file which is a Windows Media Player playlist containing
the web address of the file to play. After downloading enough to get started, WMP plays it from the beginning while downloading
the rest of it. When a file finishes playing, you can save it from within WMP using File > Save As... You don't need to download
it a second time.
How to start streaming:
- Left-click the link that says Stream M3U.
- When prompted, click Open to launch your media player and start
playback. You can continue browsing the internet while it plays. (In this dialog box, if you click Save, it just saves the m3u file,
which is usually not a useful option. Nothing plays.)
Other media players might or might not support the .m3u playlist format, and there are other reasons streaming can fail, such
as if you are behind a firewall. If in doubt, or it doesn't seem to be working, just
download the MP3 and play it from your computer. That's the reliable method. See the next section.
How to download files (recommended)
If you left-click the Download MP3 link, what your browser does depends on the browser and can be unpredictable. It might
prompt you to save the file, or it might play it, or it might give you a choice. Therefore, the following method is
more reliable:
- Right-click Download MP3 and choose Save Target As... or Save Link As...
- When prompted, choose a location to save the file.
- After you have the music file, you can play it with any media player.
