Dear Sir or Madam, 

Hello. I am Chikako Matsumura (Tokyo National University of Fine Arts   
and Music, The University Art Museum) 
We  have 212 wax  cylinders in our museum. 
A number of Japanese traditional songs were  recorded into them about   
100 years ago, so it is one of the most 
important collections in the world. However, our cylinders are 
damaged by mold. Therefore we made an application for a Grant-in-Aid 
for Scientific Research of Japan Society for the Promotion of 
Science, and it was awarded in April 2006. 

We have started a three-year Project on Preservation and Digitization 
of Wax Cylinders in Meiji-era since then, in which we are planning to 
clean the  cylinders and work out the best way to preserve them. Also 
we are going to transfer them to a digital format and release their 
information to the public. 

We would be much obliged if you would answer some questions about the 
preservation of cylinders and the way to release their information 
including their sounds to the public. The questions are in the 
attached file. We are especially interested in the method of 
digitization. We have some information of playback equipment with 
five lasers, and wonder if you know about it. 

We are planning to research abroad and visit some institutes next 
year, and we would like to know if we can visit you and hear about 
your project. 

If possible, we would appreciate to receive your reply by October 
15th, for reasons of preparation. 

Sincerely yours, 

Project on Preservation, Digitization and of Wax Cylinders in Meiji-era
