 The University of Indiana music department has an excellent and large early 
music department, in fact the head of the department for the past 25 years or 
so performed with a small group and single handedly recorded a hug opus of 
work.  His name was Brinkly, he recently died.  On public radio there is a 
early music program called "Harmonia" from Indiana, it comes on saturday night 
here, currently they are featuring American Medieval music what Ted was talking 
about "shaped note", check it out if you can, it is very informative and 
wonderful to listen to.
