By Nike Anderson

The classic marble halls OF Con-
gress are the last place one might
expect to hear the strains of music
as ''hep" as the latest Harry James
record, or as primitive as death
and danger, or as sacred as a call
to prayer. But in the Library's
Folklore Division are recordings
that range from the muezzin's call
to the faithful There is no god
but Allah" to twanging hill-billy
songs from the North Carolina
mountains.
Hitler was among those who
realized the value of folklore and
traditional songs in bringing re-
surgence of racial pride and feel
ing. and the Russians are now
following his example by using
folklore and music to strengthen
nationalism, but the Library of
Congress hopes that, in addition
to the historical and cultural value
Of it's collection, it will promote
a better understanding between
all peoples. And, since music is
primarily emotion, there is an
amazing similarity between the
songs of races that seem worlds
apart. For a humorous example
of this, there was a song sung by
a young African Gold Coaster,
entitled, people Go Way and
Mind Your Business" concerning
a gay blade being pressured by
popular opinion to marry and
settle down. It sounded just like
Westinghouse Timbuctoo (where
they have also made recordings,
by the way).
In the African collection is some
OF the most remarkable music ever
captured by the sound track. If
there could be any single word
which could describe an entire
country. one would say that
rhythm" and Africa" were
synonymous. In Haiti, I remember,
where the natives were of African
descent, the WaShWoman carrying
her tin tub to a spot under the
mango trees would be drumming
on its metal side, as rhythmically
as a dancer with castanets. And
the most casual thump on the
goat skin drum. brought down
from the hills by a Marine Captain
in a voodoo raid, would bring the
Haitiens seemingly from thin air.
The Africans are precisely the
same; one song about an unfaith-
full wife was accompanied only
by the scraping of a kitchen knife
on a cigarette tin, but the player
Evening star., 1950-05-09

achieved a marimba like quality!
The most Overpoweringly primi-
tive record, as shocking as the sud-
den sight of fresh blood, and one
which seemed to set up a respons-
i've throbbing of pulses. was Of
natives beating drums to scare
away evil spirits. On this occasion
when the record was made, a twin
boy and girl had been born in the
village, a terrible omen to the
superstitious natives. who believe
the girl will grow up to kill her
mother, and the boy to kill his
father. Hence the doomed babies
were buried alive that morning,
and that night, there being a full
moon. always disturbing to primi-
tive peoples. there were rites to
drive away the spirits. Strangely
enough, the frenzied shrieking, the
drum beatings which accompanied
this black and barbarous happen
ing had definite rhythm. a mo-
notonous pattern with subtle
variations.
The African collection, of course.
has it's lighter side-playing one
of the two tinny pianos on the
Gold Coast, a blind man sings a
ditty about Chicken and rice
with pound butter is NICE, which,
in pidgin English, strongly re-
sembles the calypso singing of the
Virgin Islands. Remember "Stone
Cold Dead in the Market"?) .
Another song described lovers in
the morning, awakened by the
Growing of a cockerel, and of their
loathing to part-just as lovers
anywhere.
In addition to the talking
drums" by which the tribes send
such familiar messages as "Chief
wants to see you right away,
there are calabash instruments
strung with antelope hide, which
are strummed by wandering min
strels, who sing of events and
happenings just as did the min
Strels Of the Middle Ages. Another
instrument used was a variation
of the banjo, which the Portuguese
brought to the Dark Continent
over three hundred years ago.
The Library actually finds, it
easier to enumerate the countries
from which it does NOT have
music than from those which it
does, as they have made record
ings from as far South as TERRA
del Fuego, and the encircling of
the globe includes even Tibet and
the Australian bush. And lovers
