about PennSound:

PennSound is an ongoing project, committed to producing new audio recordings and preserving existing audio archives. We intend to provide as much documentation about individual recordings as possible; new bibliographic information will be added over time (please contact us if you can supplement the information already provided). As part of the PennSound project, the Schoenberg Center for Electronic Text & Image (SCETI) in collaboration with the Annenberg Rare Book and Manuscript Collection at the University of Pennsylvania is developing a sophisticated cataloguing tool for all our sound files; this should be available in about one year. Click on «search,» in the header to any PennSound page, for a demonstration.

The Harvard Vocarium Readings Recorded in Cambridge, Mass., May 17, 1939

1. Sestina: Altaforte (with drums) (3:40) ; text [105]
2. The Seafarer (with drums) (7:08) ; text [236]
3. Homage to Sextus Propertius, Section VI (2:44) [535-36]

Aconsejo la grabación de Sestina (es como diríamos….histriónica)…que comienza así:

Loquitur: En Bertrans de Born.
Dante Alighieri put this man in hell for that he was a
stirrer-up of strife.
Eccovi!

Have I dug him up again?
The scene in at his castle, Altaforte. «Papiols» is his jongleur.
«The Leopard,» the device of Richard (Cúur de Lion).

Damn it all! all this our South stinks peace.
You whoreson dog, Papiols, come! Let’s to music!
I have no life save when the swords clash.
But ah! when I see the standards gold, vair, purple, opposing
And the broad fields beneath them turn crimson,
Then howl I my heart nigh mad with rejoicing.
