Thanks for reminding us of those broadcasts Roger! All the links still work, and I have now downloaded the second symphony and the twelfth. (I wrote a thread some time ago describing how to do such a download:
http://artmusic.smfforfree.com/index.php/topic,404.0.html and the method still works.) The second symphony is certainly very different from the ninth, both in style and in intention!
Sydney-
Thanks for the download link..I have been recording live for years, and slowly incrementing the player to the selection I want.
In the case of all nite concerts, this has been very tedious and sometimes I have to leave the computer on all night if I can't increment to the part I want.
On another note:
I have an administrative suggestion..
After I download or record a piece, I update the comment section of the mp3 tag file pasting the text of composer, title and the other existing documentation. That way I don't need to look for or worry about retaining a separate text file with that information and the source. If uploaders at A&M would follow the same practices, it would be very helpful..I also update the title and artists (performers fields) to make it easier to catalogue. If this is being done, it is not done consistently.
If you like, I can send a sample to illustrate.
