The Philippines 1966

Under the auspices of a grant from the JRD 3rd Fund for the purpose of establishing national folk music and dance archives in the Republic of the Philippines and also in the Republic of Korea, with the assistance of a graduate student, Harold "Bud" Schultz, I traveled throughout the Philippines making recordings and films of the traditional dance and music of the country.

There are hundreds of these recordings from all over the Philippines. Virtually none of them has ever been made available before in any form due to the complications, restrictions and vagaries of recording companies. It is my intention to put all these recordings on line and soon to add the films in streaming media as well. This is a small beginning.
