AMSGNY Meetings


The first meeting of the 2008/2009 academic year

The first meeting of the 2008/2009 academic year for the Greater New York Chapter of the American Musicological Society will take place on Saturday, October 4th. Please note a change in location. We are unable to meet at the CUNY Graduate Center, as we have for recent meetings, but the new location is just a block away from there.

The meeting will be held at the John H. Holmes Community House on 28 East 35th Street.
