Anglo-Saxon Aloud

I have always loved the sound of Old English, whether Beowulf or, like here, the Bible. It has a rough but musical quality, and the excerpts you can find at the link are lovely to listen to.

Thanks, Merry! Anglo-Saxon does have a great sound, and it's a shame that it's so hard to find readings. This looks like a project to follow.
