Fall, 2014
Greetings Musicians
This Fall I will offer workshops that emphasize the library needs for performance studies. Although many of
the skills students learn from academic coursework are transferrable, this workshop offers some tricks for
searching the catalog and and some little known treats for performers in the library’s collections. I hope you
will encourage students to attend… or attend yourself.

the lion, he hand-colored a copy of his famous
counterpoint exercises, Ludus Tonalis, with lions
throughout. See them in the full-color facsimile
