You're talking General midi here. The midi standard itself neithere
specifies or limits the number of programs.
Technically the General Midi programs are numbered 0-127, but many
instruments and computer programs use the numbering 1-128 instead (or
even 00-7F). You're definitwely not the only one who's confused about
this ;-)
There's a list of all the general midi programs at
