The German-American Music Project Collection documents significant aspects of German-American music and related cultural traditions in Wisconsin, mainly in Calumet, Dodge, Marathon, Ozaukee, Sheboygan, and Milwaukee counties. The research and fieldwork, conducted from 1984 to 1986, uncovered a wealth of traditional music and related information on German-American customs, including weddings and holidays. Recordings of musical performances and interviews conducted by James Leary, Philip Bohlman, Philip Martin and photographer Lewis Koch documented 25 bands or organizations and 60 individuals. Materials include field reports, sound recordings, tape indices, slides, and other documentation generated and collected during the project. (from the website)
