Product Description
From the Publisher
AIRPLAY audio publication of the Complete Shakespeare Sonnets brings together some of the most outstanding actors of the American and British Stage. While the plays of Shakepeare continue to be read and cherished, the extraordinary sonnets are often set aside. This collection, on cd or cassette, seeks to bring the Sonnets to life and to reintroduce them to our contemporary ear. The language is Shakespearean but the readings belong to today. Some of the Sonnets are tender, some are bawdy, most have an ironic twist, a sudden glancing truth that comes in the last couplet. In this recording of the Sonnets, we elected to read the Sonnets in Shakespeare's language but in such away that the intent of each small poem shines through. Think of the Sonnets,then, as a series of startlingly illuminated snap-shots, a quick glimpse into the soul of our greatest writer, and an extraordinary and comprehensible recording of his brilliant observations.
Both the CD and the Cassettes are UNABRIDGED.
Please note that only the Audio CD includes the complete printed text of the sonnets.
