I wonder if the mission statement might include something about
reaching out beyond PAIG to the wider SMT community, or, even better, to
music scholars of varied stripes and performers. <br><br></div>*
For the PAIG meeting itself, I would echo the sentiments of those who'd
like something other than more papers, or at least to ensure that
there's a good deal of time for discussion (unlike St. Louis). Perhaps we
can assign an article or chapter (a "classic" of performance/analysis or something new and provocative) for everyone to read beforehand and discuss.
I, for one, would love to hear how other PAIG folks think through the
scholarship, and it's an unfortunately rare treat to get to sit down with a
bunch of colleagues and go into depth on a single
subject. <br><br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif;font-size:small">cheers,<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif;font-size:small">Andy Friedman<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif;font-size:small">Andrew Friedman, Ph.D.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:times new roman,serif;font-size:small">Teaching Assistant<br>Harvard University<br></div></div>
