Recordings from Gurdjieff's magnum opus All and Everything and from T. S. Eliot, Rilke and William Blake
Readings from Beelzebub’s Tales
Readings by Anthony Blake
Gurdjieff/de Hartman music played by Wim van Dullemen
These recordings have been made over many years and consequently vary in tone of voice and delivery. While I have tried to pronounce the sometimes very difficult words of the text correctly - according to how I remember them being pronounced by John Bennett - there are undoubtedly errors, as there are also many imprecise slurring of words. I hope you can bear with me and enjoy the expereince of hearing this remarkable read aloud for its own sake.
Chapters with an asterix are in preparation and I hope to have them available by the end of August 2009.
