Narrations of the Rubáiyát

Recitation by Ralph Bellamy with musical setting

The popularity of the Rubáiyát resulted not only in musical compositions, but also in a number of narrations. From the 1940’s on they were recorded on LP’s, as record players became more and more available for the general public. In more recent times narrations were also issued on cassette tape, cd and in internet formats.
