Recordings of Hereditary Musicians of Western Rajasthan

Description:
The audio recordings in the collection include ballads, oral epics and storytelling of hereditary musician castes in the Western Rajasthan region of India recorded from 1980 to 2003. These hereditary musicians belong to some of the most marginalized communities with traditions that are quickly disappearing. The collection represents the research carried out by the late Komal Kothari of the Rupayan Sansthan, whose pioneering work put the music of Western Rajasthan, especially that of the Langa and Manganiar communities, on the world music map. The Archives and Research Center for Ethnomusicology at the American Institute of Indian Studies digitized this collection of audio cassettes that document the music and oral traditions of Western Rajasthan as part of the Modern Endangered Archives Program.
