Yes, it is unfortunately early for our members on the West Coast! I’ll need to check with Antares and Laura, but I think it should be possible to record the session and share it online, probably through this HC discussion thread.
One thing I’ll add to my message above: I hope that our discussion, both at the November 4 meeting or on this forum, can include suggestions of pieces that have worked particularly well in our own teaching for introducing or refining particular theoretical concepts or analytical tools. I was glad to find, for example, a movement from Galina Ustvolskaya’s Piano Sonata No. 1 that could be turned into an exercise on set-class analysis with pentachords and a set of pieces by Vivian Fine (Four Polyphonic Piano Pieces) that exemplify canon by inversion… these provided some good opportunities for curriculum diversification while still covering central theoretical concepts. If anyone has similar discoveries, I’d love to hear about them!

Thanks for these revised by-laws, Tara and Laura! I suggested one small wording change and also added a comment about the quorum… it occurs to me that a 5% quorum in a group of this size could easily mean just two or three people! I don’t feel strongly about this if there’s a good reason to stick with 5%, but perhaps a larger quorum of 20%-25% might better represent the interests of the interest group?
