Map. Color lithograph. Sheet measures 26" x 18 7/8" This vibrant pictorial map of the continental United States was designed as a collaboration between Dorothea Dix Lawrence, American soprano and folklorist, and artist Harry Cimino. The map is extensively illustrated to depict the broad influences of American folk music, with song titles and opening musical notations reflecting their respective geographical region. A decorative border includes instruments from various time periods and origins. It also features seven Zuni symbols used to represent the musical scale. At the top of the map, "Explanations to Illustrations and Music on Map" includes a Key to Musical Classification and a Key to the Illustrations in the Border." In very good condition, one small closed tear to upper margin. Dorothea Dix Lawrence (1899-1979) was an New York City born opera singer and folklorist. "During the 1930s, Lawrence developed a passionate interest in American folk music and folklore. In 1939, she created the radio program Primer of American Music, a series of 27 weekly broadcasts spondered by the Philadelphia Board of Education, and she also starred, produced, and directed an 8-week summer program for WNYC entitled Folk Musicians. Eventually, Lawrence reworked the content she produced for her radio programs to create the Folklore Music Map of the United States in 1945. The map, which was a collaboration between Lawrence and the woodcut artist and illustrator Harry Cimino (1898-1969) was widely distributed in American schools, and it became the basis for Lawrence's lecture-recitals and a published volume of folk songs. She was a member of the National Committee of the National Folkfestival USA, and the Folklore Society of Great Britain and North Ireland, and, in 1952, she was made a fellow of the Royal Anthopological Society of Great Britain. In 1958, she founded her own folklore society, which bore her name." (Shibuya, University of Rochester).
