Subject: historical recordings from Celtic speaking countries



The series of the "Complete Edition of the 
Historical Recordings 1899-1950", begun in 1999 
on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the 
foundation of the
Phonogrammarchiv, is continued in Series 5 "The 
collections of Rudolf Trebitsch". Rudolf 
Trebitsch was one of the last amateur 
ethnologists and still able to finance his
travels himself. In contrast to many other 
explorers of his time, he chose less exotic areas 
by systematically recording samples of language 
and music amongst the Inuit of
Greenland, the Celtic peoples, and the Basques. 
Being amongst the earliest recordings in their 
respective fields, his collections have always 
attracted the interest of
specialists. In presenting the complete 
publication of his recordings and thus enlarging 
the corpus of historical sources, the 
Phonogrammarchiv hopes to stimulate cultural
research in the regions where the recordings were 
made. The considerable size of his total 
collection and its three distinct parts suggested 
a subdivision of the series into
three different volumes (Series 5/1: Recordings 
from Greenland (Kalaalit Nunaat) 1906; Series 
5/2: Celtic Recordings * Ireland, Wales, 
Brittany, Isle of Man, and Scotland
(1907-09); Series 5/3: Basque Recordings 1913).
