This is a .MID sequence of the 1st movement of Rachmaninoff's
4th Piano Concerto. It is sequenced for the Proteus 2 Orchestral
sound module and a Korg P3 piano module.
You will have to delete the program changes in the orchestral
tracks (there are none in the Piano track) to play this sequence
with another MIDI setup. Program changes are in the 1st measure;
in addition, they are found when the string sections switch from
bowed to pizzicato (I had to do this to minimize the number of
channels used). You will also find that the French Horn track
uses 3 different programs (for soft horns, loud horns, and section
horns).
Also, you'll find that the Pizz Violins track has occasional
program changes to keep number of orchestral channels down to 16.
In bars 113-130 and bars 249-257 the patch is for pizz basses.
In bars 300-304 pizz violas are used.
I've lowered the pitch of all notes played by the Basses by an octave
since most modules do not transpose down notes played by this instrument
as the Proteus 2 does.
