Richard Crowest's voice-over work takes in national radio and television, together with some of the most prestigious heritage projects in the country.
His credits include eight years' experience as a continuity announcer, documentary narration and numerous radio and television commercials.
He can currently be heard in the British Library's Treasures exhibition, reading extracts of the Bible and the Luttrel Psalter, and his voice also features on introductory videos at the Our Dynamic Earth experience in Edinburgh.

The items below are MP3 audio files of some of Richard's voice work.  Most computers should be capable of playing these files - if you have problems, Apple's free QuickTime software, which is available for Windows and MacOS systems, can play them. If playback controllers do not start to appear in the left-hand column, there is another version of this page with links to download the individual sound files.
