About These Audios
These recordings are ideal for individual or group listening. Many talks are related to material found in one or more of Rudhyar’s books. On these pages you’ll find links to all of his books which are referred to in the talks. Many are available freely online, while others are available for purchase. Study alone at your own pace, or develop a study group meeting around one of these recordings and a related book.
New recordings are being added regularly…
including not only Rudhyar’s presentations on his groundbreaking approach to astrology, but also his talks on philosophy, as well as his poetry and music.
Listening Tips
Each recording ranges from approximately 30 to 45 minutes long. You can pause the recording and then hit play to begin listening where you left off. Or you can note down how far into the recording you were when you stopped (listed to the right on each play bar) and then return at a later time to the same point in the recording.
However, if you do play part of an audio and then return to listen to the rest at a later time, do the following: After clicking on the “play” icon, wait for a few minutes, so that the entire audio can load into the player bar. As this occurs, you will notice the player bar darkening slightly. Once the entire audio is loaded you can drag the bar forward and backward through the recording to pick up where you previously left off.
If you encounter any technical problems listening to Rudhyar audios, or if you have any comments on the Rudhyar Audio Archives, please email us.
