Good on you! Philip Blackburn not only knows Partch in a pretty deep way, but he has developed a presentation that is really very wonderful. I've worked with him on a number of occasions and assisted a couple of times in his lecture/demonstrations, and anyone who attends is in for a very special evening.

Not to be missed.

Cheers,
Jon
