The Symposium day was very exciting, and it was terrific to have Joscha Bach with us. Please thank Jeffrey for
arranging to have him join the group.
We'll be editing video from the various sources that we shot during the Symposium, and well have ways to
watch it (web, and U sure that we can also make a DVD).
In fact, tomorrow we are having our administrative follow-up meeting and the dominant thing on the agenda
are decisions about how to edit, budget for the editing, and so forth.
Our overall plan is to have good video ready within a month!
Before that, I am sure that we will have some highlights (or at least the parts that are easier to edit), as well as
still photos, ready.

We will definitely be taping the sessions that take place on stage.theater, about half the day is small-
group workshops where a lot of exciting stuff and actual improvisation (at three pianos and a
historical fortepiano) will be happening, and that will probably not get as good video coverage by its
very nature, although there will be some for that time.
It's experiential, and we are doing our very best to document it as well!

That is super great!
We really look forward to his attendance for the Symposium event at MIT.
The Oct 28th dinner could be last-minute decision on his part, he will always be welcome.
Of course
love to know as early as possible. It should be a very stimulating evening.
I will get the venue for the dinner to you as soon as it is decided. The dinnerwill likely be
at a private home in Camrbridge/Brookline.

HI Margaret...Jeffrey has said YES to this...I am not sure if he will attend the pre-dinner
on Oct. 28th (will try to find out...but it may not be until closer to the date-when do you
need to know by?) But I will for sure put the pre-dinner and the event on Oct. 29th on
Jeffrey's calendar. Thanks,
