In Tune With Tradition : Wisconsin Folk Musical Instruments

A collection of materials from field work conducted in 1989 that focused on two dozen Wisconsin folk musical instruments, their makers, and the represented ethnic and musical traditions (e.g., lumberjack, Woodland Indian, Norwegian, Puerto Rican, Hmong). The project resulted in a traveling exhibition, school tours, and a concert series throughout 1990 and 1991. The collection includes audio of interviews with folk musical instrument makers conducted by folklorist James P. Leary, photographs by Leary and Lewis Koch, and the 72-page exhibition catalogue.

The original project was organized by the Cedarburg Cultural Center. Special thanks to The National Endowment for the Humanities for providing essential support for this online collection.
