Old Believer Folk Song CD

[Marcus Levitt]

Dear Colleagues,

“PESNI SEMESISKIKH UKYRA (SONGS OF THE SEMEISKIE OF
UKIR)” – CD IS NOW AVAILABLE

An audio Compact Disk entitled “Pesni semesiskikhUkyra”
—virtually the only on-site recordings of this unique Old Believer
group--has been  published in Moscow by the Heritage Institute.
The CD includes fifteen original recordings and includes a liner with
the words.

A very small number of this CD is now available through Prof.
Marcus Levitt of USC at $15 each plus $1.50 postage—so if you
want one, do not delay.  Send a check (payable to him) to: Dept. of
Slavic Languages and Literatures, University of Southern California,
Los Angeles, CA 90089-4353.  You may contact him via e-mail at
Levitt at usc.edu to reserve a copy.  The money will go to support
further publications of expedition recordings.

For more information on the CD and the recording expedition,
which took place during the Summer of 200, see the article “Notes
on a Joint Russian-American Expedition to the Semeiskii Old
Believers of Transbaikal” in the current issue of Journal of  the
Slavic and East European Folklore Association (SEEFA) 6: 2 (Fall
2001): 11-27, which is also available on-line at:
