Click Add Content, then Embed Content on the Page.

From the Add Content drop-down menu, select Embed content on the page.

Click Choose Files.

Locate the audio file, select it and click Open.

Click Save.

The audio file will display embedded on the page.

Add a description of the audio file, then click Update Item.
