Schedule

We will meet as usual tomorrow, July 8, at 7:45 PM at 233
Broadway, Cambridge.

Next week, July 15, I will be at the Amherst Early Music
Festival. Stuart has kindly offered to host the meeting in
Somerville, with air conditioning. Since the obvious way to get a
suitable portion of the music library to his place is for him to
take it tomorrow night, let me know by then if you’re interested
in going.

Longer term, we will meet as usual on July 22 and 29. We will probably
not meet at all on August 5, so that people can go to the Francis
Roads West Gallery workshop. On August 12, I will be in Spain,
but Stuart has offered to host again. And then we resume our
normal every Tuesday in Cambridge schedule.
