Past Event: Recording the Philadelphia Folk Festival

February 28, 2019 at 6:00 pm

Location: WHYY, 150 N. Sixth Street on Independence Mall in Philadelphia, between Race and Arch Streets.

Moderated by: Joyce Lieberman, WHYY Radio Engineering Supervisor, Vice-Chair AES Philadelphia Section

Speaker(s): Scott Petersen (Chair Festival Recording/Archive Committee, Philadelphia Folk Society) and Jim Jackson (Festival Recording Technical Lead)

Together Scott and Jim coordinate the archival recording operations of the folk festival. Over the course of the evening we'll discuss how they plan for, execute and document their work; tricks of the trade and the complexities of interfacing with live sound and film crews. With a little luck, sample recordings and an ample supply of war stories will punctuate the presentation. Please join us for a fascinating look behind the scenes at one of our regions most storied cultural events. RSVP: [email protected] if you plan on attending.
