This coming Tuesday, August 16, a large fraction of the
regulars have told me that they are not coming, so if you want
there to be a meeting, you are definitely going to have to let me
know.

The following Tuesday, August 23, I will not be in town, so if
you want to meet, you’ll have to do the organizing yourself.

But as far as I know, the Tuesday after that, August 30, is
back to normal.

(non)Meeting report

People were gallivanting around all over the place, so nobody
wanted to come to a regular meeting. But our devoted fans still
want us to continue to transcribe and proofread music, so 4 of us
got together and read Il
estoit une fillette by Clément
Jannequin.

John Tyson had
specifically asked for that one. He swears it’s because it’s a
particularly good articulation exercise, and not because of the text.

Schedule

We continue to meet on Tuesdays, as long as enough people have
told me by Monday night that they want to come. The meetings are
at 233 Broadway, from 7:45pm to 10pm.
