Save Our Sounds was a television show produced by The History Channel that protrays the efforts of The Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage at the Smithsonian Institution and The American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress to preserve thousands of at-risk recordings from the last century. These recordings are on media such as wax cylinders, reel-to-reel tape, and steel wire. The video details steps being taken by archivists and sound engineers to restore and reproduce priceless recordings.
