National Library
Collects Folksongs
WASHINGTON O 2 ?)—Today’s young rock ’n roll and hillbilly sing
ing stars may be grasping fame and fortune, but their recordings
aren’t included in the nation’s top repository for American folklore.
“They’re not folk singers,” says Mrs. Rae Korson, head of the
Archives of American Folksong at the Library of Congress, which
already boasts some 60,000 songs A-
and tales on recordings. “They
sing published songs. Folk music
is handed down from generation
to generation oi’ally.”
Recording stars Harry Bela-
fonte, Burl Ives, Pick Temple and
some of the older favorites,
though, could make the grade.
“Belafonte sings all types of
folk music and has a large collec
tion of his own gathered mostly
in Jamaica,” says Mrs. Korson.
“Also, he spent some time studying
at the library before singing at
night clubs. We’d like to have
some of his records.”
Mrs. Korson is not worried
about the current hullaballoo
over the Elvis Presleys, Pat
Boones and other disc jockey
hit stars.
“A tremendous interest in our
heritage of folksong has been
developing in the past five years,”
she said.
“Inci’easing numbers come to the
library looking for the authentic
folksong. They listen, buy re
cords, sing and learn how to play
them. Sometimes they bring their
guitars with them and learn to
play the tunes in accompaniment
to the songs.”
A steady stream of musicians,
teachers, scholars, writers, his
torians, students and tourists
comes (o the archives’ “listening
room” to play records.
“We are anxious to stimulate
interest in the young to carry on
research and also to preserve our
songs,” she said.
There is still a great reservoir
of untapped material, she said,
and it is important that recordings
be gathered from old people still
living who remember them.
Under a $25,000 grant from
the Carnegie Corp., the library
is issuing long-playing records
in its series of America folk
music and folk lore. Five of
these already have been made
from material previously record
ed.
