[COMPLETE]Solo SPANISH - Fortunata y Jacinta (Primera parte) - kit

Fortunata y Jacinta: dos historias de casadas (Primera Parte) by Benito Pérez Galdós (1843 - 1920).

This project is now complete! All audio files can now be found on the catalog page for this project https://librivox.org/fortunata-y-jacinta-dos-historias-de-casadas-primera-parte-by-benito-perez-galdos/

"Fortunata y Jacinta" esta considerada la mejor obra de su autor: Benito Pérez Galdós, y junto con "La Regenta" de Clarín, la cima de la novela española del Realismo del siglo XIX. Es mucho más que una historia de dos mujeres casadas de distinta posición social, carácter, y objetivos que ven sus vidas entrelazadas de manera dramática. Tanto es así que en 2003 fue elegida por aclamación popular como la mejor obra ambientada en Madrid que se ha escrito nunca y la que mejor refleja los surcos profundos de la sociedad de esta ciudad en los tres últimos siglos. Su extension en cuatro partes, su profundidad psicológica y el vastísimo elenco de personajes la han convertido en una obra universal, contribuyendo a situar a Galdós a la altura (y algunos dirán incluso por encima) de maestros como Balzac, Dickens o Dostoievsky.

En esta Primera Parte conoceremos los orígenes de la pudiente familia Santa Cruz, así como las andanzas del joven Juanito y cómo acabó casandose con la bella e inocente Jacinta. Sin embargo habrá algunos aspectos del pasado de vida alegre de Juanito Santa Cruz que levanten las sospechas de la atormentada Jacinta y, con la ayuda de Guillermina y Pepe Izquierdo, intentará resarcirse y dar un importante golpe de efecto en forma de "venganza poética" para salirse con la suya.

Por suerte este proyecto ya nace con DPL, es gabrielledosuarez ya que es él es quién me ha propuesto embarcarnos en esta aventura galdosiana de cuatro partes

[Kitty]

olà Epachuko this seems like a straightforward project and the source is ok, I can set up the MW for you and you can start recording. I see you already have a DPL, so we will move to Going Solo as soon as I'm done.

So you only want to do the first part in this project ? Not all four parts in one go ?

Stay tuned

Sonia

[Kitty]

ok you have your MW that you can fill in. You only need to change the intro/outro to the Spanish words, you launched the English template

Also I see you wanted 14 sections but there are only 11 chapters in Part one. If you plan on dividing some long chapters, it would be best to say "Seccion" instead of "Capitulo". Something to think about before you start with the first section.

I'll wait until you and Gabrielle have seen this, then I move us to going solo. Did you send the link to Gabrielle ?

[Epachuko]

Hi Sonia, thanks for everything!!!

Well, the main idea is to record the four parts, but it is going to take so long (we estimate about a year) that I would rather go part by part, and I think it will be easier to record, DPL and listen. Each part is as long as a medium-short novel between 150-200 pages. Recording all the book on a row I think is too much, more than 100 sections around 30 minutes each discouraging while recording to us and fearsome choice to think if you want to start listening!

I think this firt part it is going to take more than the 14 sections I first guessed, because whenever is possible I would like to make sections of no more than 30 minutes to make it easier to follow. ( 8 pages takes me 26 minutes) When we did "La Regenta" the chapters were too long from my point of view... But Fortunata, because of her structure, allows to make shorter sections in the chapters without cutting the plot.

And about sections and chapters, for example if I understood properly and I want to divide chapter two into two sections it would be like that:

"Sección 2. Capitulo 2: Santa Cruz y Arráiz. Vistazo histórico sobre el comercio matritense (Parte A)"
"Sección 3. Capitulo 2: Santa Cruz y Arnaiz. Vistazo histórico sobre el comercio matritense (Parte B)"

Thanks again!!

P.D. indeed gabrielledosuarez is aware, and will be soon claiming the DPL on this thread

[Kitty]

WellRecording all the book on a row I think is too much, more than 100 sections around 30 minutes each discouraging while recording to us

ok, I understand your point of view. Yes it is no problem to make 4 projects out of it. It's also a sense of achievement if one part is completed.

And about sections and chapters, for example if I understood properly and I want to divide chapter two into two sections it would be like that:

"Sección 2. Capitulo 2: Santa Cruz y Arráiz. Vistazo histórico sobre el comercio matritense (Parte A)"
"Sección 3. Capitulo 2: Santa Cruz y Arnaiz. Vistazo histórico sobre el comercio matritense (Parte B)"

sounds a bit long. I would suggest you speak the intro like this then:

"Sección 2 de Fortunata y Jacinta (Primera Parte) by Benito Pérez Galdós. Esta grabación de LibriVox recording esta en el Dominio Público.
Grabado de Epachuko (optional)
Capitulo 2: Santa Cruz y Arnaiz. Vistazo histórico sobre el comercio matritense (Parte A)"

and then:

"Sección 3 de Fortunata y Jacinta (Primera Parte) by Benito Pérez Galdós. Esta grabación de LibriVox recording esta en el Dominio Público.
Grabado de Epachuko (optional)
Capitulo 2: Santa Cruz y Arnaiz. Vistazo histórico sobre el comercio matritense (Parte B)"

and at the end only: "Fin de Seccion 2" / "Fin de Seccion 3"

does this sound good to you ?

Ok, I move us over to Going Solo now.

Sonia

[Epachuko]

Perfect!!!

Thank you very much Sonia, for your advice and coordination!

Let's start this "little" adventure, and slowly but steady, enjoying section by section

[gabrielledosuarez]

Hi everyone!!!!
I`m here!!! ready to DPL this super project!!
We have to make this one perfect.
Bye.
Gabriel.

Primera sección subida.

Me llama la atención lo densa que es cada página, por ahora no tiene muchos diálogos, por lo que cada folio está prácticamente escrito en su totalidad. Eso hace que cada página me lleve más tiempo para leer que en otros proyecto (incluída La Regenta), así que es posibe que tenga que ir abriendo más secciones para evitar que cada sección sea excesivamente larga. Por ejemplo el capítulo 2 lo he tenido que dividir finalmente en tres secciones (casi una hora y media de grabación) y son sólo 18 páginas ...

Pero es genial, lo estoy disfrutando mucho. Paciencia y ánimo para llegar lejos!!

[Kitty]

Por ejemplo el capítulo 2 lo he tenido que dividir finalmente en tres secciones (casi una hora y media de grabación) y son sólo 18 páginas ...

you can have up to 72 (or even 74) minutes in one section. So Chapter 2 with 1.5 hours could be divided in 2 sections of 45 minutes without any problem. But it's up to you if you prefer doing shorter sections.

Sonia

[Epachuko]

I would rather to make shorter sections whenever is possible. It easier for me to record one section each day I can record, and it makes also that every section has the same tone or volume in my voice in the same file. I think is easier to listen too, at least if what I prefer when I listen other Librivox proyects on the bus, driving or at home!

Chapter 2 is one the shorter ones

Thank you Sonia!!! I always appreciate your support and care on your proyects!

[Kitty]

I would rather to make shorter sections whenever is possible. It easier for me to record one section each day I can record, and it makes also that every section has the same tone or volume in my voice in the same file.

oh I totally understand you. For me 25 minutes is already too long to record in one session I prefer sections under 20 to be comfortable. But I wanted to tell you the maximum, in case you didn't know.

Have a nice weekend

Sonia

Hi everyone,
here some little mistakes in the beginning sections. Let`s see:

Section 01. Ok.

Section 02. 01:52. "postrimetrías" / 25:35.

Section 03. 01:40--> 02:00 / 02:25 / 04:00 / 04:30 / 07:20 / 07:50 / 08:10 / 08:25 / 12:44 / 15:20 / 15:35 / 15:45 / 17:38 / 18:45 / 21:40 / 23:25 / 23:45 / 24:28 / 24:55 / 25:05 / 25:55 / 28:50 / 29:05 / 29:28 / 30:28 / 30:40 / 31:02.

Section 04. 01:25 / 02:03 / 02:50 / 03:15 / 03:45 / 04:05 / 05:30 / 06:14 / 06:35 / 08:35 / 10:42.

The mayority of the mistakes consist in repetitions.
There will be more soon.
Greatings. Bye

[Epachuko]

Thanks for your great DPL!

I Will try to get more tome for editing before upload the files so you do not have to have so much job to do but it is going to take longer to upload New files. There we go Fortunata and Jacinta!

Thanks for your time and thouroughness!!!

[Kitty]

Gabriel, are you able to access the Magic Window ? It would be good to update the section status to PL ok or PL notes, so we see clearly which sections are ok and which need editing. In the beginning it may still be easy but once we have the project going over many pages it may become confusing.

And Epachuko, don't feel like you need to rush through the book, we have time no stress.

Thanks

Sonia
