The only direct recording of him reading his own fiction, though is in
"Children's Program of Poetry and Literature" - This was a Library of Congress event in 1993 with Prosser Gifford and Lloyd Alexander. "Lloyd Alexander reads a chapter from his novel for young people entitled The remarkable journey of Prince Jen. The chapter he reads is Tale of the bronze bowl." I suspect nobody else has this recording.

Other than that, there are related recordings.

In 1973, Edna Edwards interviewed him and the Center for Cassette Studies recorded it - "Lloyd Alexander, born story teller."

There's a cassette recording of his "Fantasy and the human condition," from 1976. (He presented a paper with that name in 1988 - but I don't know if they were the same.)

In 1994, a video was done, "A Visit With Lloyd Alexander" which has been uploaded to youtube in 3 parts, the first of which is here:

Again, though, this is not quite what you were asking for. If I trip across anything else in my wanderings, I'll pass it along.
