In June-July 2000, a joint Russian-American expedition collected folk songs and recorded religious rituals from the Semeiskii Old Believers of Transbaikal (Zabaikal'e). The expedition was organized by Vladimir Kliauz of the Institute of World Literature and the Institute of Natural and Spiritual Heritage in Moscow, and Prof. Marcus C. Levitt of the University of Southern Calfornia (Los Angeles), accompanied by Prof. Richard McIlvery of USC's Thornton School of Music who produced state-of-the-art digital recordings. An Undergraduate Research Grant from USC, with additional special support from the Albert and Elaine Borchard Foundation, funded the expedition. Three USC undergraduate team members were included: Cinema Production major Natalie Ross; Music Industry major Amy Deng; and Art History and Business major Camille Perkins. They helped with the recording and pursued projects of their own. The team also included psychologist Mariia Shchapova, who served as an interpreter, and Liubov' Il'iushenkova, a folklorist from the Oblast' Center of Folklore in Chita. This expedition can boast of the following "firsts." It was the first to make on-site recordings of Semeiskii folk music with professional quality equipment. (There do exist other recordings of this music, but they were produced in studios in Novosibirsk and Moscow.) Recordings were made under authentic field conditions - around tables in people's homes, in local club buildings or cafeteria, and without time limits. The recordings thus also include the authentic sounds of eating, drinking, coughing, laughing, and occasional arguments over lyrics! A CD of the songs recorded in Ukyr has recently been produced in Moscow. (See the announcement at the end of this article.)
