Technical stuff:
Most of the pictures displayed on this site have been resampled at low rates, but should link to larger (better quality) downloadable files. The music is provided as mp3 files, which are smaller than the original wave files, with a corresponding loss in sound quality. Nevertheless, they may still take a significant time to download, if you are using a slow internet connection. So we have also included 'small' files, which are shorter and more heavily compressed, if you are using a slow 'dial-up' modem.
