Yemen's Musical Memory aims to preserve and disseminate Yemeni musical heritage by documenting a collection of 78 RPM records produced by international and domestic companies in Aden between 1935 and 1960. The records, widely regarded as a pillar in the country’s national musical memory, represent an early 20th century musical archive that captures the sounds of Sanaa, Aden, Lahij, and Hadramaut.
