Dear Sonia, Sorry I think I forgot the 5 seconds at the end of last section! I will make the correction probably tomorrow since I am now going to Bologna by train I didn't make any lecture on Dante at University, I am just a mechanical engineer (un vile meccanico, as says Manzoni in Promessi Sposi)....

I uploaded also sec. 41 "E' non è legno di sì forti nocchi" .https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/rime_041_alighieri_128kb.mp3 (0:58 minutes). With this sonnet we find a sudden change in style: where is gone the beloved“donna angelicata”? Here we have almost an evil “donna”. I found th...

Sonia, I uploaded sect. 39 "Poiché saziar non posso gli occhi miei" - 1:08 minutes - https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/rime_039_alighieri_128kb.mp3 Just a couple of notes: This text is now generally attributed to Cino da Pistoia, but this fact doesn't make at all the poetry less fas...

The weather is not so nice here in Torino, it is mainly raining now, after a couple of weeks of sunny days, with summer temperatures.

Sonia, you are certainly listening very carefully to the recorded poetry! :clap: Compliments! It makes me really confident that when you give an OK, the file is really OK! :D In fact, I printed section 32 on two sides of one single sheet of paper ad after “avventurosa” I turned the paper! :oops: I d...

Sonia, I have reloaded the corrected files for sections 29 and 30, decreasing the volume as suggested by you. Thanks for the Replay Gain plugin suggestion :D ; I have added it to my Audacity and will use it in the future. Just one more question :?: : Trying the plugin on my initial files 29 and 30 t...
