Welcome to the companion website for Music, Thought, and Feeling by William Forde Thompson, your hub to the text's audio Sound Examples. The Sound Examples are divided into two types:
1. Author-created Examples

Thanks to the musicians who've graciously provided their permission for us to deliver these to you.
2. Published Songs (iTunes required)
