In our effort to provide new and interesting titles of all genres, we at Faded Page introduce our first books with audio files. The audio files are in the form of MIDI (.mid) files included with the downloads, and they are used to enhance the text or provide an audio accompaniment to illustrated musical scores in the e-book. These .mid files can be heard by clicking on the [Listen] or [Play] box in the text using most major browsers and on most e-readers with audio capability.

We invite you to browse through our first audio e-books beginning with The Music of Bach: an Introduction by Charles Sanford Terry, a non-technical "guide" to the music of J. S. Bach, describing how his music was influenced by his surroundings and the times. Other titles with audio files are Shakespearean Music in the Plays and Early Operas by Sir Frederick Bridge, which includes a musical appendix containing .mid files and sheet music in .pdf format, and Whistling as an Art by Agnes Woodward, a handbook describing methods for the development of tone, technique and style in whistling.

Come join us and proof a few pages to help us bring more public domain titles like these to Canada. Information about volunteering is available at our companion site, Distributed Proofreaders Canada.
