Two records held together: the Library of Congress American Folklife Center's own research guide for its collection "Eta Harich-Schneider recordings of Japanese music" (call number AFC 1957/010, made circa 1954 under a Guggenheim Fellowship), whose own description states the field recordings include "imperial court music; Shinto music and songs; Buddhist temple music; medieval court songs; Japanese folk songs sung by a young sailor; and music of the goza"; and Wikipedia's own account of Harich-Schneider, corroborating her post at the Court Music Department of the Imperial House of Japan (1947 to 1949), her scholarly monograph "A History of Japanese Music" (Oxford University Press, 1973), and that recordings of "Buddhist Music" and "Shinto Music" from her fieldwork were released through the publisher Barenreiter.
