Re.: Listening to the NY Public Library all the way from San Francisco...

I don't know what came over me to say <Adrian Cosentini singing "Vissi
d'arte">  when the singer is Emma Eames (Cosentini was the sound
engineer...:)

At any rate, a better page to hit is:

   http://digilib.nypl.org/dynaweb/millennium/mapleson/

There are only 11 selections of the Mapleson Cylinders, and you need
RealAudio (with its pesky pop-ups and constant demand to upgrade) to
hear them.  But you can read the entire booklet (72 pages in print form)
online.
