Schedule

All sessions will be held at the Department of Music, Stoeckel Hall, Room 106, except for two sessions (Tuesday and Friday afternoons) at Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, RM 38–39 [B]. A few matters of protocol for the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library: when you arrive, you will be asked to leave all personal belongings in lockers on the library’s ground floor before going downstairs to the classroom, where you will be asked to sign a class register. In the classroom, you will not be allowed to use pens; we’ll have pencils on hand for anyone who doesn’t have one
