I first clicked on the file, then when the speaker announces the performance at 2:24 the file jumped back to the beginning, and I had to move it forward manually to 2:25 to get the beginning. I tried this a couple of times with the same result. But when I play it on VLC it plays through. So apparently the default player couldn’t quite deal with the file, which is obviously not quite unproblematic, unlike all the other files I have downloaded from your wonderful site.
Thank you so much.
Best wishes,
Martin

Thanks for this Martin – looks like i need to apologise, as having looked under the hood it’s clear that the ‘Incipits’ file is indeed corrupt; the FLAC stream has got messed up somewhere/somehow, even though it seems to play fine in most programs. So i’ve made a fresh version (omitting all the opening spiel; i’ve been going through all the older recordings removing this, so it starts immediately with the music) which should solve the problem once and for all. Sorry!
