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 addition to his classical repertoire, Sidor Belarsky has long been considered the foremost exponent and interpreter of Hebrew and Jewish songs. He has revived many forgotten Yiddish songs, breathing life and soul into them, and they will continue to live in Yiddish song repertory for all future generations.

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.

If a song listed below has not been digitized yet, it will NOT show up within the player. If you need us to digitize this song/album, you can make a formal request here.
