Hi Matheus
Thanks for this.
I have just noticed that there is a confusion in act 1 over the allocation of the lines:
Aeneas has no fate but you!
Let Dido smile and I'll defy
The feeble stroke of Destiny
The Archive text assigns these lines to Dido but the Stanford text assigns them to Aeneas, and it does seem more logical for them to be spoken by Aeneas. I have also cross checked against the Vocal Score of Purcell's Opera (I sang the Chorus once) and that also gives these lines to Aeneas. So could you add these 3 lines to your act 1 file (between your 2 existing speeches) and re-upload.
Also for the voice credit please say Aeneas, a Trojan read by Matheus Thorndal
Acts 2 & 3 are PL OK!

The role of Belinda has been reopened. As this is the final role needed to complete the play a quick turnaround would be appreciated. It is only a few lines in each act

A couple comments:
- Volume's a bit high on these, but since you're editing anyway, I left them that way. I did do noise reduction.
- In Act I I repeated a line with a different emphasis: "The Hero Loves as well as you". I wasn't sure if the emphasis was supposed to be on "Hero" or "as well as", so I gave you both.
- In Act II I also read the Chorus part that was immediately after the one line for Belinda. It felt so incomplete. Ha ha! Use it or ditch it.
Let me know if you would like anything done differently.
