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 | By gathering and recording some of the most beloved Yiddish folk and art songs from the 19th and early 20th centuries with new arrangements and settings, Cantor Lissek imbues new life and meaning into them. The Cantor's vocal style is perfectly suited to the songs he sings; at once making the listener nostalgic for the golden age of the past while at the same time creating memorable songs for the next generation. Recorded with the Israel Symphony Orchestra (Shimon Cohen, arranger and conductor). |
