Playmidi is a MIDI file player that will play back using FM, GUS, SoundBlaster or external MIDI. It also supports Creative Music Files (CMF), Microsoft RIFF (RMI) files and large MIDI archives from games such as Ultima 7.
The player may be used with a text interface or a graphical interface.
It appears to be a simple bash tool without GUI. Unfortunately it doesn't work, it tries to call /dev/sequencer which doesn't exist on current versions of linux mint. Maybe unsurprisingly so, the tool is from 1997.
