Milken Archive of American Jewish Music

The MILKEN ARCHIVE comprises the largest collection of American Jewish music ever assembled, featuring such leading artists as the Academy of St Martin in the Fields and Sir Neville Marriner, Yoel Levi, Gerald Schwarz, and the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. The Archive’s primary goals are to reconstruct and preserve for current and future generations major musical manifestations of the American Jewish experience, and to reveal the intersection of Jewish composers and Jewish subject matter with some of the major genres in Western classical music. The collection has reached a major milestone with the release of the 50th CD in its pioneering recording series for Naxos American Classics.
