The Recorded Sound Archives (RSA) is a unit of FAU Libraries Special Collections department. We are located in the Wimberly Library on FAU's Boca Raton campus.

Originally established in 2002 as a small project dedicated to the preservation of recorded Jewish music, it has matured into a robust digitization operation for all types of sound recordings.

Notes When the Nazis invaded Poland, Danto was able to escape to Russia until the war was over. When he returned to his hometown, he found only ashes and ominous silence. The only traces of the centuries of Jewish life and culture that remained were in the scholar's mind, in the poet's soul, and the singer's art.

Recordings restricted by copyright will only play 45 seconds to give you a sense of what that recording originally sounded like. These recordings can be identified by the words (Research Station) in the music player.
