The information presented here about each recording in this collection comes from original documentation by the collector(s). Access to the recordings in this collection has required permission from the American Museum of Natural History with a description of intended use. Patrons should contact atmusic@indiana.edu for assistance in getting further access to these recordings. 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.
