bulletMIDI files to help you practice—
bulletRutter's Mass of the Children —parts are split out (thanks to Stephen Blades for finding this website)

Free programs to play MIDI files—

The MIDI files can be played on your computer system by music player software like Windows Media Player and Real Player.  However, more control of the music can be achieved with programs like Cakewalk Express, Winjammer and Quartz Audio Master.  All of these programs allow you to view the score and to limit what parts play.  You can also compose your own scores for practice.  The versions referenced below are all limited in some way because they are free "demo" versions that are designed to get you to buy more advanced versions, but they are all quite usable.
