The University Libraries loaded bibliographic records for thousands of musical sound recordings available through Naxos Music Library. This means that if you search the NIU library catalog for sound recordings, recordings from Naxos Music Library might appear in your list of results.
To illustrate, I searched our catalog for Georges Enesco's Romanian Rhapsody no. 1 (in our new catalog system, I used an advanced search and entered "enesco" as "author name" in the first search box, and "romanian rhapsody 1," selected all of these, and searched as "keyword anywhere" in the second search box) and I saw the list of results shown in the first picture on this blog post. When I clicked on the circled result, Rhapsody, I saw the page in the second picture. Note the links in the catalog record that will take you to Naxos Music Library. You must be on campus, or connected to the campus network through a virtual private network (you must be affiliated with the university to connect from off campus), to listen to Naxos Music Library.
Not every recording available through Naxos Music Library will be in the NIU Library catalog, but several thousand of them are. Please search Naxos Music Library directly for complete access to its content.
