Also in Judith R. Cohen Collection

The Judith R. Cohen Collection is comprised of digital sound recordings of English and Ladino songs, oral testimony, radio programs, and academic presentation examples representing research among the Sephardic refugee community in Montreal, Canada. Ethnomusicologist Dr. Judith Cohen of York University, Toronto, began collecting works in the 1970s. Dr. Cohen's major informant was Bouena Sarfatty Garfinkle (1916-1997). Digital files in the collection also consist of photos, descriptions of repertoire, biographical material, powerpoint presentations, and other items collected and prepared by Dr. Cohen in the course of her research work.
