Summary: |
This
series consists of audio recordings of performances by or interviews with
folk musicians, craftspersons, storytellers, and folklife interpreters.
Included are reel-to-reel, audio cassette, and digital audio tape (DAT)
formats. Most of the recordings document performances by national
and local folk personalities at the annual Florida Folk Festival, dating
back to 1954. In addition, there are a small number of reproductions
of Works Progress Administration (WPA) folklore field recordings from the1930s
and early 1940s, including recordings collected by Zora Neale Hurston on
which her voice can be heard both speaking and singing. Together, the recordings
document such areas as children's lore, foodways, religious traditions,
Seminole culture, maritime traditions, ethnic folk culture, material culture,
and occupational lore. |
