>From Bob Gilmore I have received news of a series of concerts of the music of Harry Partch in the Netherlands. Bob says that from the outset the idea was to create an opportunity for young Dutch musicians to perform Partch's music alongside a seasoned veteran, and in this instance he is referring to John Schneider. Schneider will be heard in Barstow, Three Intrusions, December 1942, and parts of Bitter Music (in the last he is joined by Huib Ramaer in the role of actor and the Flemish pianist Daan Vandewalle). One of the other notable features of the series is the first public outing of a new Adapted Viola, commissioned from the Amsterdam violin-maker Ronald de Jongh by the viola player Elisabeth Smalt. Elisabeth together with the singer Johan Lippens will perform eight of the Seventeen Lyrics by Li Po.
