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.

Althea, Maxine, Nat: Please note that the title of this Vistas of Israel program is NOT "Songs of Israel/The Galil" as stated on the JSA listings.

June 7, 1967 is the day that the Jews took back, after 2000 years, East Jerusalem and its holy Eastern Wall. This Vistas of Israel program plays the sounds of that day, including the blowing of the Shofar, the saying of prayers at the Wall and interviews with some of those present. Teddy Kolak (check spelling), the Mayor of Jerusalem, discusses the reunification of the City. Jerusalem residents and shopkeepers are also interviewed giving their opinions on how positive life and business is since the City became undivided.

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.
