Indiana University Archives of Traditional Music. A Catalog of Phonorecordings of Music and Oral Data Held by the Archives of Traditional Music. Boston: G.K. Hall, 1975.
-
For locating sound recordings of traditional material in the Indiana University collection. Can also be used to find recorded traditional material in general.
-
Includes data on all collections accessioned in the archives through December 1974 (about 125 wire recordings, 6,000 cylinders, 25,000 discs, and 18,000 tapes). The archive includes music and spoken material that displays “some aspect of oral tradition.” The collection’s strengths are in the areas of African, Afro-American, Latin American, and North American Indian (especially from the state of Indiana) cultural materials.
-
A photographic reproduction of the collection’s card catalog in order of accession number. Entries include (as applicable) the material’s location of origin, record label, issue number, recording title, release or creation year(s), HRAF symbol number, form/size/medium/generation of the recorded item, call number in the Archives, collector name(s), depositor name(s), donor name(s), and record series titles. Three indexes: (1) Geographical Areas, Culture Groups, and Subjects, (2) Collectors, Depositors, Performers, and Informants, and (3) Recording Companies.
-
Photographic reproduction of index cards is low resolution, which makes the text generally difficult to read and, ocassionally, makes some letters entirely illegible. This problem does not generally interfere with the usability of the discography.
