Music of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)
Series 中国古典音乐欣赏 (Chinese Classical Music), Vol. 5
EAC LAME 320 k | ~154 MB

This is Vol. 5 of the same six volumes series of which I have already uploaded Vol. 2, The Music of the Tang Dynasty at http://avaxhome.ws/music/chineseclassmusic2.html . The random order is due to the fact that right after coming home from China I have lent a great part of my freshly purchased CDs, and now I upload them in the order as I get them back... Nevertheless soon I will upload all the six volumes.

Each CD includes abundant information on the relative period and the music selected both in English and in Chinese, so it is enough to add that these pieces belong to the finest Chinese Classical music I have ever heard.

Ripped with Exact Audio Copy (EAC), and compressed with LAME at 320 kbps. Complete with cover scans and booklets (300 dpi) with descriptions of each piece in Chinese and English.

Tracklist:

1. Autumn Meditation at Dongting Lake (Qin, Xiao and Erhu)
2. Sunny Spring (Qin solo)
3. Fishing Tune (Qin song)
4. Concubine Xiang's Sorrow (Qin solo)
5. Dressing Table (Xiao and orchestra)
6. Wearing Orchid (Qin solo)
7. Chao Yuan Song (Qin, Xiao and Pipa)
8. Crow Croaking at Night (Qin solo)
9. Tune of Happy Evening (Qin solo)
10. Story of Pipa - Eating Chaff (Aria of Southern drama)
11. Tale of Washing Dress - Encirclement (Aria of Kunqu opera)
12. Tale of Emerald Hairpin - Overtones (Aria of Kunqu opera)
13. Wuxiake Muqam - the First Dastam Interlude from the Eighth Muqam Suite (Song and dance music)

Ooops... I thought it was 30, I don't know why... Thank you for the info!

All right, from now on I will prepare packages of 19,50 MBs, so that you could dl at least 39 MBs per hour instead of 28 or 29... Better so both for you and for me.

My dear friends:
rapidshare limit is the mentioned 30 MB per hour; but if you download a single rapid file up to 100 mb, it's allowed; and the 30 mb limit works only for 2 or more files.
(ie: if you wanna DL more than one file, you can only DL up to 30 mb per hour).

Excellent post, vidra! As aghaye_doctor put it, there is no sense in dividing the CD in 19.5MB files, because you cannot fool the rapidshare hour limitation (if their meter spots anything over the 30MB limit - that's another hour of waiting for you). Just stick with your current format or, better still, go for the upper limit (100MB). Xie xie!
