The
Tovarischi collection was
by far the largest contribution to music by Doukhobors
(that is, music with intrumentation). Beginning
in 1954, a total of 21 records (42 sides) had
been recorded giving voice to the three then-young
pioneers (Frank Konken, Bill Saliken, Fred Zibin),
but brought subsequent artists such as Ruby Konken,
John
Evin, Katie Zibin, Alex Konken, and Molly Popoff
to the recording forefront.
