Latin audio recordings for download or on-site listening
Live in Latin by listening to these recordings at home or on the go! Recordings are by Justin Slocum Bailey or Cori Russo (whose impressive Musaeolum features a host of other recordings!), of works in the public domain or original works. Many more are planned; you may also use the Contact Form to request new recordings of a work that is in the public domain. Accompanying texts are provided for download when possible.
Some recordings use Restored Classical Pronunciation ("C"), some Ecclesiastical Pronunciation ("E"); some are available in both ("C, E"). Click the pictures to access the recordings.
Also check out the Latin Listening Project, a collaborative effort to publish videos by a variety of speakers answering questions about their lives in Latin, and the Quomodo Dicitur? Podcast hosted by Gus Grissom, Catherine Reed, and Justin Slocum Bailey. (See below for other new Latin podcasts!)
