:lol: the three tales were so hi-la-ri-ous :mrgreen: I especially chuckled with the Goth and the dove. They were lucky the Goth had a sense of humour too at the end ;)

Excellently narrated, and acted out in many appropriate places, Todd :thumbs:

I can mark 62 and 64 PL ok already.

Found two small bits missing from the organist from Bergamo, which both are needed to complete the sentence though:

> at 2:00: Who plays upon the same—drew inference that the deceased was the true organist

> at 2:28: Alzare i mantici quando suonava gli organi—

thanks

:lol: now here you had a crash course in German swearing, Greg :mrgreen: Highly entertaining. I can just imagine the outrage of the German maestro when he realized what musical dilettantes he had to deal with ;)

excellent job and PL ok.

Thanks

Thanks, Sonia! I knew that all those years of German class would one day come in handy! I appreciate the kind words. It was a fun piece to read.

Take care,

Greg

wow, excellently narrated, Mark :thumbs: I loved the very fluent reading and you made the story really lively. I did pity the pigeons though :(

One very small (but important !) missing thing though:

> at 0:05: missing "read for Librivox.com" in the intro disclaimer ;) could you insert this and reupload once more, please ?

I saw that this is your April challenge, so you can go and tell them, that you've accomplished the task :mrgreen: I do sincerely hope the poetry experience was an enjoyable for you, because it was definitely enjoyable for me to listen, so I hope I may hear more from you again. :9:

haha, well if one day you meet your German teacher again, you can tell him his lessons helped you to get through a lot of swear-words in some funny poem. I am sure he will be mighty pleased to hear that :mrgreen:

Here's the corrected file: https://librivox.org/uploads/carolin/songsoftheseaandlaysoftheland_37_leland_128kb.mp3 [7:46]

It was enjoyable, but then it wasn't exactly Baudelaire. :)

Baudelaire is quite beautiful too, in his own way. Of course I have never read any translations, so there's probably good and bad ones out there. :?

Your section is now PL ok. Thanks !

:shock: SHRIEK !!! how could I make this mistake after so many thousands of recordings and listens ?! Yes, of course, it was .ORG. Luckily, Mark is paying better attention than me. :oops:

Thanks Carolin
