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 The selections found on this recording created by the Judaica Sound Archives® from Cantor Schwimmer's “home recordings” are a composite of both Jewish folk melodies from Eastern Europe, and original compositions composed by the cantor's choir-leader and Baal T'filah, Avrum Lifshitz. They are performed simply, with no vocal or instrumental accompaniment.
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.
