OHAM 50th Anniversary

 

Oral History of American Music celebrates 50 years

Oral History of American Music (OHAM) originated in 1969, when Vivian Perlis, a reference librarian in the Yale School of Music, began recording interviews with friends and colleagues of Charles Ives. Today the collection comprises more than 2,900 audio and video interviews with composers, jazz musicians, and other major musical figures.

OHAM: Yale Student Composers

The Yale Student Composers project documents Yale’s celebrated graduate student composers.  These promising young artists are interviewed at the outset of their studies at Yale, and they speak about their work, musical education, inspiration, and other subjects. Their testimony is filmed by a professional videographer.
