## Description

What is Sound Beat?

Got 90 seconds?

Then you’ve got time for a trip through the history of recorded sound! Sound Beat
is a
 daily, 90 second show highlighting the holdings of the Belfer Audio Archive.
The Belfer is part of the Syracuse University Library, and with over half a million
recordings, is one of the largest sound archives in the United States. Each SB episode
focuses on one particular recording from the Archive, and provides a back story 
detailing its place in recording history.

What kinds of recordings? Popular and classical music performances, film scores 
those from
 distinctly American musical forms like jazz, bebop, country, and bluegrass.
Old favorites, rare gems, and some we guarantee you’ve never heard before… from 
Cab Calloway to the castrated stars of Italian opera, you’ll hear it all on the 
Sound Beat!

And it’s not just music. Sound Beat episodes also feature speeches and spoken word

performances from some of the great thinkers, political figures and luminaries from
the late 19th and early- to mid-20th centuries. People like Thomas Edison, George
Bernard Shaw, Amelia Earhart, Albert Einstein, and Theodore Roosevelt.
