Dear Colleagues:
I am very pleased to announce that the 2003 meeting of the New England Conference of Music Theorists will be a joint meeting with the Music Theory Society of New York State. The meeting will be held at Yale University, April 26-27, 2003. This will be the first joint meeting between NECMT and MTSNYS and we are all very excited about the opportunities it presents.

Please feel free to circulate this notice among your colleagues and students as well.
There is a new address for the NECMT website. Following discussions at the 2002 business meeting, the Executive Board decided to find a more permanent home for the website, one which would allow us to update and maintain the site’s contents without hindrance. The new address is http://homepage.mac.com/necmt. At next year’s business meeting, we will consider the idea of registering "necmt.org" as our permanent domain name.
Ed Gollin (Harvard University) has stepped down as Website Development Chair. We are all extremely grateful to Ed for his years of service in this important position. Andrew Davis (University of Massachusetts, Amherst) has agreed to take over Ed’s responsibilities. With this change, the Executive Board decided to change the name of the position to "Website Coordinator."
The terms of office for NECMT President and Treasurer will expire in 2003. As usual, we will hold an election to fill these vacancies in the spring. The Executive Board has appointed a nominating committee to develop a slate of candidates. The members of this committee are Deborah Stein (New England Conservatory), chair; David Cohen (Columbia University); and Christa Kober (University of Massachusetts, Amherst). Please send nominations (self-nominations are welcome) to Deborah Stein, NECMT 2003 Nominating Committee, New England Conservatory, 290 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA 02115.

I’m looking forward to seeing you in New Haven next April. In the meantime, please accept my best wishes for a safe and happy summer and a productive start to the new academic year.
Sincerely,
Gary S. Karpinski, NECMT President

UMBC will host a three-day symposium of performances, lecture-recitals, panel discussions, and paper presentations on topics that concern Japanese music from the widest possible range of disciplines and expertise. Four guest composers of international stature will participate in the symposium - Toshi Ichiyanagi, who worked with John Cage in the early 1960s in New York, and has ever since introduced Japan to experimental music; Joji Yuasa, who was a member of the jikken kobo in the 1950's and a Professor of Music at the University of California, San Diego from 1981-94; Akira Nishimura, who has received numerous international awards and commissions for his music that is influenced by historic Japanese music and elements from other Asian cultures; and Tokuhide Niimi, who has received international recognition for works that span musical genres from ballet, to choral, to orchestral and chamber music, to music for traditional Japanese instruments.
Performances during the symposium will include a broad range of works for different genres (solo instrument, chamber music, choral, traditional instruments) by Yuasa, Ichiyanagi, Nishimura, and Niimi, as well as the winner of a composition competition. They will include the premiere of a new work by Nishimura. The performers for these concerts will include RUCKUS (the contemporary music ensemble at UMBC), faculty and students of the UMBC Department of Music, and guest musicians from the Baltimore/Washington DC area and other international new music centers.

By providing a scholarly journal devoted to the subject, the interdisciplinary work of film music studies can flourish. Contributions encompassing all aspects of film music history, analysis, theory, and criticism are welcome.

Other Announcement: Ear-Training E-list
Dear list members:
The conference, "Developing the Musical Ear: A Conference on the Teaching of Ear Training at the College Level" held at Mannes College of Music was a resounding success. The "lively exchange of ideas and techniques" which we anticipated in the program flyer came to fruition at the conference in a remarkable manner.
It was suggested, helpfully, towards the end of the conference that an e-list, web ring, or general forum of some sort be established so that this important area can be explored in the musical community on an on-going basis. We are happy to report that an e-list has now been established. The web site for the list is:
http://www.ursatz.com/Ear_Training
To join the list, please go to the web site. Once there, click on the "e-list" button, *please* read the FAQs and Rules, and then subscribe through the subscription option. You may unsubscribe at any time.
Any additional questions which are not covered under the "FAQs" section may be directed to Eric Chernov at: eartraining@ursatz.com
Thank you very much for your interest in this most important pedagogical area. We hope to see you on the list!
Yours sincerely,
The Conference Committee
