Obviously with sites offering free downloads of recorded music,
there may be instances where copyright is breached. Musicweb
International, in creating these pages, have attempted to ensure
that no such site is included.
However, because the copyright laws differ from country to country,
and the possibility that the webpage owner may not be telling
the whole truth, Musicweb accepts no responsibility for problems
caused
by a
user downloading
from a site listed on this page.
Music forums
Two online "forums" where news about various musical
topics, possibly including free download sites, is exchanged are:
• the Usenet group rec.music.classical.recordings (accessible
through Google Groups and Uneset newsreader software)
• Classical
Music Guide Forum website
You
can help!
We cannot hope to be fully
comprehensive - that would be impossible
- so we ask your assistance. If you are
aware of a website that
isn't on our list and
would seem to fit this category (or one
of the others), please send us an email
at musicweb60@yahoo.com.au.
We will check it out, and if we believe
that it is appropriate, will add it to
the list.

Oryx recordings from the 1960s and 70s; there are mentions
elsewhere on the site of 99c per download, but this seems
outdated as all the tracks can be downloaded free |

The majority of files are in midi format,
but there are quite a few mp3, if you look for them. |

1950s out-of-copyright recordings; not the quickest download
site around; downloads are whole LP sides, not individual
movement tracks |

no longer available, including violin concerto (see review),
