The British Library releases the first ever audio CD of Shakespeare spoken in the original pronunciation


The British Library is today releasing a new audio CD, Shakespeare's original pronunciation, featuring speeches and scenes performed as Shakespeare would have heard them. Although there have been a handful of attempts to perform Shakespeare in the original pronunciation on stage, notably at the Globe in London and the Universities of Kansas and Nevada in the US, this is the first time that recordings have been made available worldwide for study and enjoyment.
