The Blake Society is pleased to announce that the MP3s from our Voice project are now available for you to listen and download here.

Blake’s works have been brought to life in new readings by our members, and we have been given access to historic recordings made by the Sydney Group in the 1960′s, thanks to the heroic rescue efforts of Alan Pert.

There are still a few works not represented, and space for alternative readings, so if you are interested in creating your own recording, contact voice[at]blakesociety.org for more information.
