About the Sound of Iraq project

The Sound of Iraq (SOI) project is dedicated to creating and supporting a new Iraqi National Sound Archive (INSA) as part of the Iraqi National Library and Archives (INLA) in Baghdad, Iraq.

This is an essential and vital project for the preservation of Iraq’s valuable musical history, the reconstruction of the country and the safeguarding of its cultural heritage and collective memory. More
