Hey y’all. Created a Utility page for mp3s of works being performed and various ancillary materials, including pdfs of scores.
Ensemble M is the first Ensemble’s area to be populated.
In the future, notification will occur on the home page, and you’ll find the materials on the Utility Page, a button for which can be also found at the top of the landing page.

They’re baaaack…
Yep, it’s started. Looks like a great group of folks, certainly good eaters… A great BBQ chicken meal to start, and we’re off and running. Welcome to all you fellows, and to all the faculty! So listen, last year I started this little blog to just, well, write a little bit, bring some attention to some things I thought it might be fun to bring attention to, and to organize some of the events and music which comes out of the festival. I’m looking for writers and ideamongers who might want to collaborate with me in making this here thing useful... for everyone.
So please don’t hesitate if you’re interested. Restaurant reviews, hiking accounts, thoughts on museum exhibits… let it be a sounding board, a message board, whatever you’d like to make it. All posts have their comment fields open, so leave a comment or start a thread. I’m happy to make a page for whatever subjects you think are interesting. Have at it. It’s the second year, so you can look back a year and listen to some music from last year’s festival as well.
Also, check out the blogroll to the right. some interesting things there, including faculty sites.
And subscribe to the rss feed so you can automatically be kept up on new entries. Don’t know how? Ask me. I’ll show ya.
Welcome, we’re really happy to have you here!

This year we’re going to make a photo pool so it is MUCH easier to share photos with each other. The only thing you’ll need to participate is a flickr account
We’ll send you an invitation email to the group straight to your inbox, then all you have to do is upload your pix to flickr, and then click on a button to send them to the group photo pool where people can comment and exchange photos…
If you want to get a head start, then start an account, otherwise, wait for an invitation to join. And then you’ll see lots and lots of photos of your fellow fellowes… like this one…

Hey y’all. Who’s a Yogi here? We have a really great yoga studio nearby for those who do the practice, I’ll see you there, and Jacqueline, the owner and proprietor of Frog Lotus Yoga has extended a very special offer to us. Tell her you’re with Bang on a Can, and you can sign up for three classes for the price of two. Nice, right?
The schedule lives here. You don’t HAVE to have a car to get to it, but it would certainly help. It’s a 1/2 hour from Mass MoCA probably by foot, though I’ve never tried it. Bikes work, or just tell me you want to go and we’ll work out a ride. Odds are we’re all on the same sched, right?

Cup and Saucer is one of our favorite breakfast hangs in town. Dan and Mark are the proprietors, and have some great and filling menu ideas including the Big Ben, the Wide Load, the Breakfast Burrito which rocks, and a create-it-yourself sandwich board with various homemade pestos. And the coffee… order the Fogbuster coffee. Dark and wakening.
They have a website, visit them here, and be sure to visit the Free Coffee Page
Tomorrow I’ll post a special offer for Bang on a Can folks… Prepare your mix cds for Cup and Saucer and perhaps get free coffee for the whole time you’re here! When you do go in, say hi to the staff and let them know you’re with Bang on a Can. They’re expecting you.

Hi all! Well, count it, nearly two weeks later and i’m finally getting this all wrapped up. Do hope you enjoy these mp3’s of the Improv group concert. Now, mind you, this is not the best recording job. it’s simply straight into my little new M-Audio Microtrack, and although this is appearing to be a great unit, getting the record level units together, especially in that very reverberant room, proved to be a little challenge. Thanks to Baljinder for his microphone and help. You’ll find the program listing on the Improv 404 page, with every title a link to mp3.
Next, comin’ at you, all of those Indian music resources we promised, courtesy of Baljinder and Robert Morris, composition prof at Eastman and Indian music expert.
Do stay in touch! this Blog is going to grow and expand. Yeah, right, you say… Watch!
