Wac\u0142aw Tuwalski (1909 \u2013 1995) \u2013 teacher, regionalist, he was documenting the songs from the region of Wola Osowi\u0144ska. When he wasn\u2019t teaching, he would go around the nearest area (Wola Osowi\u0144ska, Osowno, Olszewnica, Oszczepalin) and record songs. He started docummenting  before the war, mainly the wedding repertuare \u2013 unfortunately most of that work was destroyed during the war. Tuwalski resumed his work later, using ZK140T tape recorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2015 IS PAN Phonographic Archives recieved Tuwalski\u2019s collection of recordings from his daughter \u2013 Alina Bry\u0144czak. The collection consists of 24 magnetic reel tapes and 2 casette tapes. They have been digitalized by Kaja Ma\u0107ko-Gieszcz and Ewelina Grygier within the 2nd stage of the project. It is worth to mention that a couple years earlier Janina Szyma\u0144ska was interested in the collection, which she partly described in the volume dedicated to Podlasie region of Polish folk songs and music<\/em> series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The material is splitted in two groups: ethnographic and ethnomusical recordings. The first one consists of interviews e.g. about folk medicine \u2013 herb treatment of people and animals. The second one consists of ethnomusical recordings \u2013 documenting folklore and members of Tuwalski\u2019s group of mandolinists that had been functioning since the 80s. Tuwalski documented wedding, funeral,  love and patrotic songs as well as town folklore. That being said, the material is full of different kinds of recordings, but most of them are ceremonial-wedding songs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s only one interview with a man \u2013 Jan Balbra \u2013 because Wac\u0142aw Tuwalski would document mainly elderly people, almost only women Less common are groups of younger girls (\u201egirls from Olszewnica\u201d) or students. Apart from the recordings of the group of mandolinists that was run by Tuwalski himself, there is no documentation of instrumental music from Wola Osowi\u0144ska and its surroundings, There are also many recordings of patriotic songs, most likely performed by Tuwalski\u2019s students or members of his group of mandolinists.
Apart from the sound there is also a written documentation \u2013 mainly transcript notebooks with the music and lyrics written down. The Wac\u0142aw Tuwalski\u2019s recordings collection is a valuable source of research on a local folklore of Wola Osowi\u0144ska and its nearest areas. The documentation of the recordings collection of the Regional Society in Wola Osowi\u0144ska has been digitalized and described by Ewelina Grygier within the Polish folk music \u2013 phonographic heritage <\/em>project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
