Download .torrentOpen magnet link

Open the .torrent file in your torrent client to start. It includes the webseed. A magnet link opens your client directly; it may need peers to find the file details. No account needed.

First download? Start here
  1. Install a torrent client on your computer, such as qBittorrent or Transmission, from its official site.
  2. Choose Download .torrent above. This small file tells your client which files to fetch; it is not the film, book, or music itself.
  3. Open that file in your client, choose a folder with enough space for the download size shown above, and start the transfer.
  4. Once it finishes, open the downloaded files. Leave the torrent in your client to share it with others.

Browsing on a phone without a torrent client? Open this title’s page on your computer to download there.

Download not starting?
  • If a magnet does nothing, open your client first or use Download .torrent and open the saved file from the client.
  • If the client is waiting for metadata, try the .torrent file. It already includes the file details and available webseed fallbacks.
  • Check that the torrent is not paused or queued, your destination has enough free space, and your connection is online.
  • A recent seeder report is not a guarantee of a connection now. Webseeds can also be temporarily unavailable; leave the client open and try again later.

You do not need an account to download.

Copy the magnet link

Keep your torrent client open afterward to share this copy with the Den.

The Record

Musopen's second Kickstarter, 2013: "Set Chopin Free". Ninety thousand dollars from the public paid a handful of concert pianists to record every piece Chopin published — the ballades, scherzos, nocturnes, mazurkas, polonaises, études, preludes, waltzes, the two concertos' solo parts, the songs — and to give the lot away with no strings, so that a film-maker, a teacher, a dance class or a listener could use a real performance of any Chopin without a license fee. Where the Open Goldberg made one great work free, this made a whole composer free.

It is a collection rather than a recital, and it sounds like one: five pianists, several pianos, a few years. Start with the ballades and the Op. 28 preludes, which are the strongest sets; the mazurkas, all fifty-odd of them, are the shelf's long tail. Nine hours or so, as lossless files from Musopen's own upload.

The copy we chose

Transfer Report

Chosen copy: Musopen's own Internet Archive item musopen-chopin, uploaded by the project's founder 2015-01-29 — 82 Apple Lossless (.m4a) files and 22 MP3s that exist only in that format, 104 files, 3.21 GB, with the project's PDF booklet. Files are named by work, not numbered; the set is a collection, so there is no running order to verify — completeness is checked against the collection's own track list in the booklet.

The Archive.org metadata publishes no durations for the lossless files; the runtime above is an estimate from the file sizes (ALAC at roughly 800 kbps) and should be read as about nine hours. Musopen's own collection page is the reference copy.
