this kind of thing is so cool. we know from listings that there are a fair number of klezmer test pressings from the 1910s/1920s that never saw a commercial release. none in this set yet, but I hope some surface eventually. In some cases they were done by people with no other recordings, in other cases a large catalogue but they had some that were deemed not commercially viable and never released.

my latest blog post, which is quite niche but is a process I wish I had known about earlier in researching American folk music (in my case, obviously #klezmer, but the same process could be used for a lot of genres). hope it helps someone in their research at some point. I used Ukrainian-American fiddler Pawlo Humeniuk as an example because he rules.

I don't know how I spent 2.5 months doing musician research at YIVO and I never knew to call up RG 112 "Music collection" which is like a huge mix of old musical scores. Didn't even know it existed...
not necessarily relevant to my research project so not a huge loss in that sense but I definitely would have looked through and photographed some of the old klezmer scores from NY of the 1910s/20s...
