Dear Percy Grainger Society Members and Guests,
As the time for our Annual Members' Meeting approaches, we’d like to thank you for your ongoing support of, and engagement with, the Percy Grainger Society. We have had great success in the last year, with numerous programs, donations, grants, and new volunteers. This is a period of growth in the Society that we can all be proud of, and in which members and volunteers continue to play a vital part.
We hope you will be able to attend this year’s Annual Members' Meeting, which we have scheduled just after Percy Grainger's birthday this year, on July 12 at 4 pm, Eastern US Time, (9 pm BST, 6am AEST (Saturday, July 13)). The meeting will be recorded and placed in the members' area of the website for those who cannot attend at these times.
The meeting will cover the following key topics:
- Review of activities in 2023–24
- New programs and initiatives for 2024–25
- Presentations of members' activities
- Opportunities for you to participate
Special guest this year is Professor Andrew Hugill, who will give an update on the new Grainger Library of Sampled Sound project. More information about the new GLOSS project is available here.
We expect the meeting will last between 1 and 1.5 hours.
As is our practice, we are happy to answer any questions you may have during the meeting, and to allow time for open discussion. Of course, you can also email me before the meeting at paul@percygrainger.org.
With best wishes, and hoping to see you at the meeting,
Paul Jackson
President – Percy Grainger Society
