Just a remix of the original enhanced MIDI project, with a different piece of music. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/76759248/

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
Scratch's piano sounds, by default, sound really bad and sometimes out of tune, especially on high and low notes. This project showcases a ridiculously inefficient way to solve this problem.

The sounds were rendered by a combination of a small C++ program I wrote, TiMidity, and ffmpeg and imported using Kurt. The soundfont used was FluidR3. Of course, this is never going to sound as good as a real MIDI synthesizer, but it's pretty close.

To use this in your own project, put the first sprite in your backpack, put it into your project. Use the self-explanatory custom blocks to play sounds.

Note that on some systems, many of the sounds and possibly other assets wherever this system is used may fail to load (check the console for this) because of a bug in Scratch (https://github.com/LLK/scratch-flash/issues/619, https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/88418/) that exhausts the browser of its resources when loading too many assets at once.
