Dear friends,


            For two years it has been my privilege to help OpenSound stumble
            out of its playpen, and I'm proud and thrilled that it's made it onto
            its feet and is now walking.  I'm glad for the opportunity to help the
            community of improvisers in Boston and elsewhere through a rough
            time for venues and audiences, and it does my heart good to see the
            scene rising again.

            With my move to Ithaca, Lou Bunk and Lou Cohen have taken charge
            of the series, continuing monthly events at Third Life Studios in Union
            Square, Somerville, and taking the series forward as an ingredient
            in Boston's revitalized experimental music soup.  Booking inquiries can
            be emailed to them above, and the new webpage for the series is
            available here.

            Thank you for making my time in Boston happy and special, and I look
            forward to seeing you often.

                                                                                                             Tim
