This is a fine tale and thank you for it, Daniel. However, the whole of the US's creamy center isn't necessarily that desert-like (or dessert-like). Consider Indiana U. and their early-music festival in Bloomington, IN. Here in Columbus, OH, we have a thriving, obscenely well-attended

Madison has an excellent early music festival that includes a number of concerts by major early music groups plus a week of classes taught by the members of the performing groups. I attended a couple of years ago (it drew over 100 students) and enjoyed it immensely. I'd recommend it to anyone,

All of Dan's musicological work is of the very highest quality, including transcriptions concordances. In addition to being an accomplished musician on piano, he was playing the renaissance lute in the 60s based on an actual museum copy. The books often contain information--including
