WORLD ARBITER (...) 18 Titles
Allan Evans' World Arbiter is a non-profit sonic archaeology label whose recordings offer extensive documentation of the rarest surviving authentic traditions and performers. Since its first release in 1999, the label has presented vital examples of classical and traditional music with detailed scholarly analysis and painstakingly restored audio production. Many releases are the result of projects that took decades to restore and annotate, as original records and tapes often exist in one known copy and require global hunting and diplomacy, with scholars combing their places of origin to interview elderly musicians. In 2009, World Arbiter published the first of five CDs containing all known surviving Balinese gamelan discs recorded before WWII with an expanded CD offering PDF texts and MPEG-4 files of historic silent films to create the fullest resource possible. Having also released recordings of Indian ragas, Sufi trance ceremonies, rare blues and Japanese traditional music, World Arbiter works to save endangered cultural traditions with the utmost seriousness, integrity and attention to detail.
