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 In the 1980's Cantor Benjamin Maissner and pianist Naomi Bell presented two enthusiastically received programs of Jewish song: one reflecting the dreams and achievements of Israel's poioneers, the Chalutzim, and the other a collection of beautiful Yiddish folk and art songs. This CD presents selections from both programs. In addition Ladino - Judeo Espagniol selections are also included.

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.
