Making Your MIDI Sequences Breathe

Here are the sound and graphics files used in the demonstration on how to make your MIDI sequences sound more realistic:

Sounds

No breath, constant tempo
(Hmm, 37 sec. on one breath)

No breath with fermatas
(45 sec. Circular breathing?)

Breath/Phrasing added
(More musical? Realistic?)

And for a more realistic sound, Breath, fermatas, with reverb

Graphics

Piano Roll View for first two excerpts (No breath/phrasing)

Piano Roll View for last two excerpts (Breaths/Phrasing added)

(By the way, you've probably noticed that the trumpet sample used in these examples has a "warbly" vibrato. Does this vibrato make the sound more or less realistic to your ears?)
