HOW TO BURN A CD TO TAKE TO YOUR PIANO:

IMPORTANT:  CLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS
Explanation about sound on the internet. 

Sound on the internet has to be in small file sizes, so we use
Mp3 files, WMA files, or real audio.

Mp3 files can be burned to a CD, or downloaded to a MP3 player
and taken to your piano for practice.

WAVE files can be burned to a CD and used in any stero system,
but......the file sizes are in the thousands and too large to download
from the internet.  It can be done, but would take a long time to
download and could freeze your computer.

So................here is the solution:
1. Web site puts up sound files on the internet using MP3 or WMA, (small files)
2.  You download the files and save on your computer.
3.  Download a converter that takes these files and converts
     them to a wave file so you can burn a CD.  IT"S SO EASY.

INSTRUCTIONS:
1.  Download your files from Music and You and save in a folder
     that you can find easily.
2.  Go to    http://www.smartaudioconverter.com/?id=sacgg
     and download the free converter.
3.  Convert your files to Wave (PCM)
4.  Burn your newly created WAVE files to a CD using
     Windows Media Player.
It's so easy and  now you can take your CD and hear it in a CD
player that is by your piano and play the duets. 

Playing with other instruments will catapult you to a much
higher level of playing and makes a huge difference in your
learning curve.  So, it is worth the extra hour it takes to
download the files, convert the files and burn to a CD.
