Hi David,
of course I remember you from Gent 93 and further correspondence re group
lessons. My music school is still very interested in group lessons. Purely to
save money!

Are you going to ICA conf. in Ostend in 99? It's bound to be every bit as good
as Gent was - plus the beach!

As far as the Note Board is concerned, we have finally started selling it. It's
going slowly but steadily. The price of apprx. US$ 75 retail is inhibiting to
sales for people who reckon they can get along with out it. But an ever
increasing awareness of learning disabilities helps sales in the long run.
(It's not only for LD's but for every music learning child of any age!)

We have no US distributor as yet. Any ideas?

David Glenn
