Nine reel to reels.
For information regarding performers, titles of songs, and other details, see individual reel descriptions. The Stephen Foster Center recorded the main stage performances. It appears that not all the performances were recorded. Also, the individual reels are undated. See the festival programs located in S 1619 for other activities at the festival. The festival began on Thursday (30 April) afternoon at 1:30pm and ran through Sunday (3 May) afternoon. Performers usually played sets between one and three songs each. Performances were presented in morning, afternoon, and evening blocks. This was the 18th Florida Folk Festival. |

Folklife Database
Search this database for descriptions of photographs and audio recordings from
the Florida Folklife Collection available at the State Archives of Florida. Approximately
46,000 photographic images and approximately 5,000 audio recordings are cataloged.
Contact the Archives to order images and recordings.

Because many of the original recordings are in a fragile condition, patrons
will only be permitted to use digital copies of those recordings. However,
the digitization project is still in progress, and therefore some recordings
may not yet be available. Please contact
us ahead of time to ensure availability.
