The American Folk Song Collection
at the Kodály Center of Holy Names University
Led by Sr. Mary Alice Hein and archivist Eleanor Locke, a generation of HNU faculty members and students sought and transcribed many songs from the American folk tradition, using both print and recorded sources.
In 1984, the Holy Names University Collection of American Folk Songs for Teaching was recognized as a folk song archive by the American Folklife Center of the Library of Congress. The collection provided the basis for the online American Folk Song Collection.
This is a searchable index of songs. Enjoy!
