KPFA-FM Music Dept. audio collection 1949-1995

http://www.oac.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/kt5z09s1cs

Compiled from 1949 to 1995, this collection of primarily analog reel-to-reel audiotapes embodies decades of innovative new music radio programming, specialized in 20th Century new music, but whose content also reflects a variety of musical forms rarely represented by commercial media. The collection features live concert recordings, other musical recordings, interviews, performance art and symposia, covering artists whose backgrounds range from the classical conservatories to the counter-cultural underground movement of the 1960s.
