Great way to start learning European Portuguese
Would you consider the audio edition of Rapid Portuguese (European): Volumes 1 & 2 to be better than the print version?
I don't think there is a print version.
What did you like best about this story?
This is a really palatable introduction to Portuguese, for those people who are prepared to listen to it every day. I listened while I did housework or gardening, and was amazed how much I picked up.
What about Marlon Lodge’s performance did you like?
The 2 performers have pleasant voices that are easy to listen to again and again, which is crucial, because that is how this method works. They seem to have a good rapport with each other, and the conversation sounds natural even though it is clearly scripted. The music that accompanies the text is very helpful. Sometimes the words are repeated to the rhythm of the music, and that helps you to remember.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Not applicable. It isn't meant to listen to in one sitting.
Any additional comments?
I've tried several Portuguese audio courses, and this is by far the best. Easy to listen to and easy to pick up, and you can get a transcript online for those who like to know how words look as well as sound. When I went to Portugal 8 months after starting to listen to this course, I was amazed at how much I had picked up. I didn't expect to be able to speak, but I understood loads, which was great. I wish there were further levels in this course.

Likeable gimmick, but not the best system.
The addition of repetition to music seems like a sound way of learning a new language but, having tried multiple language systems over the years, I personally haven't found this to be one of the best. The narrators are pleasant, and with pretty standard content they do at least try to give you an understanding of how phrases are being constructed, but the added music over the experience has only served to distract me from the language, and sometimes makes it difficult to hear the vocab, so at the end of having listened to 2 volumes I can say that I've had a good dance around my kitchen, but I can't recall much Portuguese.
If you're intending on trying multiple languages, be forewarned that the music scheme is the same across each language package, so if you're hoping you can remember the content in relation to the song, you may find yourself getting crossed wires down the road.
Overall, a pleasant experience, but not much use if you seriously want to learn a language.

Unusable
Music (crummy, irritating music) plays constantly throughout the lessons. It’s incredibly annoying and intrusive, and makes it difficult to hear the words. I returned the title. I cannot imagine who thought the music would be helpful, or why they would think so.
