Chopin - Polonaise Op. 53 "Heroic", as piano MIDI
The A-flat major polonaise with the famous left-hand octave avalanche - one of the best known pieces ever written for piano. This page has an excerpt of the piece as a MIDI file, transcribed automatically by klavery from a public-domain competition performance - nothing cleaned up by hand.
Listen to the transcription. This audio is our MIDI played on a sampled grand, not the original recording - what you hear is exactly what the .mid contains, pedal included.

The composition is public domain and the MIDI is yours: slow it down to learn from, open it in MuseScore for notation, drop it in Synthesia, or load it into a DAW. Timing, velocities and sustain pedal are all in the file.

klavery does this to anything - upload a song or paste a YouTube link, and it separates the recording into six instruments and transcribes just the keys. You get MIDI, printable sheet music and MusicXML back. Free, no account.
