Torrent description

Atrium Musicae de Madrid was founded in 1964 by the Spanish monk Gregorio Paniagua, and in the 1970s-1980s released a series of unparalleled recordings of music from Spain and elsewhere. Their recordings of Ancient Greek music and of folias are available on CD, but most are no longer in print. I have most of their work on LPs in excellent condition and am uploading 24-bit, 44.1 kHz transcriptions using an analog rig that is near state-of-the-art. The arrangements, performances, and recordings are all of the highest quality and are well worth checking out, if you are able to make use of 24-bit audio files.

This torrent is a transcription of the Harmonia Mundi LP HMC 389, featuring Arabic music from Medieval Andalusia. It was recorded by Alberto Paulin in October 1976 in the Eglise de Palaja. I have left the two LP sides intact, both because Gregorio Paniagua's arrangements are in themselves compositions and should be enjoyed as integral wholes, and because I'm lazy. The torrent includes a PDF file with scans of the LP covers and booklet notes in English.
