I can't seem to find one of these anywhere - I can play this prelude, and I want to find a MIDI file just to polish it a little so it sounds as good as possible. This is a great prelude, one of Rachmaninoff's best in my opinion, and it seems as though it has been neglected. Anyone's help would be thoroughly appreciated.

Thanks

I typed this into google:

rachmaninoff prelude midi

And found the prelude you want on the first page of results.

I'm curious, though. How would a midi file help someone polish something? What are you going to do with it?

I had a bunch of piano rolls converted to midi at one point with some Rachmaninoff. Not sure if this was one of them, and I have lost the thumb-drive.. frown
Perhaps you could find a piano roll conversion?

I looked on that page, and Op.32 No.9 doesn't seem to be there. Perhaps you could provide me with a link?

I need the MIDI file because I my sight reading is not great and I think I am getting some notes wrong, so I just want to check on the MIDI file as it is a lot easier. Also my friend wants to learn this piece and he cannot read music at all, but his technical ability is very high and so I thought that this may help him learn the piece as it is what he has done in the past.

Thanks

This was on the first page of google results. I assume you can find it from here?
