Kyle Gann on music after the fact

Mini-Minimalism Conference

The Society for Minimalist Music, of which I am a proud founding member, is having an appropriately minimal conference at Goldsmiths, University of London, on September 13, as a kind of appetizer to tide us all over until the big conference coming in September of 2009. The poster with official information is below. As it says, you can contact Keith Potter (estimable author of Four Musical Minimalists) for registration details at the e-mail given. I won’t be there, but rather in Kansas City at the time, scouting out strategies for next year.
