Here we go!! This is the finish line!
{ Edit: I'm rescinding Section 53 for now. On my PL I feel like the pauses between sections are too short so I'm going to adjust them before re-uploading, probably later tomorrow. }

I seriously LOLOL'ed at the line: "Perhaps the twentieth century will repay all its debts to genius."

A couple of notes for Section 53:
04:21 I hear "… was exhibiting this particular souvenir …"; text has peculiar
10:29 I hear "… after the manager and her lawyers …"; text has his
"Just because you can doesn't mean you should"—my first law of life.

Adjusted inter-anecdote timings, and re-recorded:
andSome time later, when the lady was exhibiting this peculiar souvenir as a lock of Beethoven's hair, another friend, who was a party to the joke, acquainted her with the deception.
On Minnie Hauk's coming early, as she supposed, to steal a march on her rival, she found Roze had outwitted her.
But one thing was left the fair Minnie to do, and this she did. She went back to her hotel and declared she would not sing a note that night. It was only after the manager and his lawyers had labored with the irate songstress for some two hours that she was finally persuaded to go back to the theater and assume her part, after the opera was one-third finished.

Thanks to everyone who took part.

I noticed that only the first 14 sections are available on the Librivox smartphone app. Is there usually some time lag between what's on the web site and what's on the app?knotyouraveragejo wrote: ↑March 8th, 2023, 4:12 pm Congratulations on completion of this collaborative recording for LibriVox!

We have nothing to do with the content of that app (or any others). If you are using the "LibriVox Audio Books" app by book design, you would need to contact the app developer directly.

Hi,
I just noticed that section 48 in the catalog is playing section 57. The file names are correct but it looks like 48 got overwritten by 57 maybe?
I think I still have the audio file if you need it

Please upload the correct file for section 48 to my uploader folder and I will replace it. My backup file is also the audio for section 57.
