Listen to BIS for FREE!
Sat, Dec 4 2010, 10:31PM
Just mooching around the internet and thought I'd have a look at BIS website, http://www.bis.se/index.php. Well I am impressed, with the help of Naxos it seems we can all listen to their catalogue for free!
I am enjoying the symphonies of Tubin at the moment and can highly recommend his fourth. http://www.bis.se/index.php?op=album&aID=BIS-CD-227
Haven't a clue about bitrates, etc. but with my headphones on it sounds pretty good.
And this is just superb http://www.bis.se//index.php?op=album&aID=BIS-CD-461 Erland von Koch's Concertino Pastorale is wonderful.

Interesting, but it looks like only the first half of each track.
Still, it gives an idea of each track!

Well all the tracks I have played have been full length. I notice when hovering over the 'listen' button it mentions only 50% will be played so maybe there is a glitch in their system, shhhhhhhh!

Yes, indeed -- thank you very much !!!
Excellent! Thanks for sharing this tip. As I do not have a good way of streaming (computer-to-Hifi) at present, I am more interested in downloads. But hopefully I will find a streaming solution eventually, and then will revisit the BIS website from time to time.
