Our partnership with the NYUAD Library, the Center for Digital Scholarship (CDS) and
Archives and Special Collections has facilitated the development of collections of media for cross-cultural analysis and archival preservation. We are including these collections in what we call the digital compendium of music from the region. The digital compendium is the ever-growing digital repository of music from the region that supports our research efforts. It comprises several collections of regional music such as those below.

• The Eisenberg Collection
• Mayouf collection
• Carnatic music percussion
• Taarab from Zanzibar
• Collaboration CREM — NYUAD
• Al Ghadeer Collection of Lullabies and Work Songs
• Exploring the Musical Traditions  of the Shihuh
