These are acoustic recordings made on a cylinder phonograph and they are characterized by the relatively low fidelity and high surface noise typical of this format and recordings of this age. Correct playback speed is particularly difficult to ascertain with this format and it has been determined by a variety of factors, but may not be an accurate representation of the original source. Some recordings in this collection may not appear in this interface due to damage that makes them currently unplayable. For more information on damaged recordings, contact the Archives of Traditional Music. The recordings available here are derivatives from stylus-based transfers made in 2018 on the Endpoint Solutions playback machine. Minimal noise reduction and de-clicking have been applied to these derivatives to offer modest improvement to the listening experience without compromising the integrity of the source audio.

"prominent in the late 18th and early 19th centuries." Descriptive information presented here may come from original collection documentation.
