"The Ozark Folksong Collection, originally recorded and compiled between 1949 and 1965, is the largest and most complete collection of traditional music and associated materials from Arkansas and the Ozarks in the nation. The physical collection contains audio recordings of songs, oral histories, anecdotes, and tales from over 700 performers. In addition there are transcriptions of lyrics, and music notations. The contents illustrate a rich diversity of cultures, economic classes, and occupations. The content of the online collection is constantly growing. The current contents include over 3500 transcriptions of folk songs. Upon completion, the online collection will contain approximately 3800 transcriptions and over 4400 audio recordings." |
