Next to
some of the listed music tracks there is symbol
By clicking on this symbol you should be able
to hear a short excerpt from that music track. Note:
The 'mono' quality of the music is not as good as the broadcast stereo quality you will hear
on the actual discs.
In order
to hear this music you will need Microsoft Media Player software or other
proprietory audio replay software on your
computer. This software enables your computer to replay it over your
loudspeakers.
Most newer computers have this software installed when you buy
them, otherwise you have to download it, free of charge, from the Microsoft
website on the Internet. Once you have downloaded it, you can use the software
to listen to music on other websites, and also video 'clips', so it is
useful to have. It will not interfere with, or corrupt your computer in any way.
This
software takes a minute or two to download via broadband ( or about 60 mins on an old 56K modem)
and will enable
you to listen to, and view a wide range of audio and video website information.
After you click on proceed
below, the Microsoft Windows Media
Player website will appear - go to the free download button and click on it. The
software should start to download onto your computer. It will 'park' itself ,
probably on your desktop.
After it has downloaded,
click on the icon so that the software installs itself on your computer. After all
this procedure (it's worth it in the long term!) go back to the
website music track listing and click on
the
to hear the music.
The music will replay, via broadband, in 'real time' i.e. it should download faster than the music plays, so there
will be no interruption to the music playing speed ... (or 30 secs to one minute to download on an
old 56K modem, in 'chunks' of a few seconds, on the
first occasion. After it has downloaded once, it will then replay at normal
speed whenever you need to listen to it again.)
