AMS Houston 2003 The sixty-ninth annual meeting of the Ameri- can Musicological Society will be held in Houston, Texas, from Thursday, 13 Novem- ber through Sunday, 16 November 2003. The conference sessions will take place at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Houston. One of the largest hotels in the downtown area, the thirty-story Hyatt has close to a thousand rooms, three restaurants, an outdoor rooftop pool, and a fully equipped fitness center. The Hyatt lies six blocks southeast of Houston’s downtown theater district, which includes Jones Hall (the home of the Houston Sym- phony Orchestra), the two-theater Wortham Center (home to the Houston Grand Opera, the Houston Ballet, and the Da Camera Soci- ety), the Alley Theater, and the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts. This is the Society’s first meeting in Hous- ton, the country’s fourth largest city. Hous- ton’s vibrant arts scene includes top-flight opera, ballet, symphony, and theater, a lively international film festival, and excellent museums. A cosmopolitan seaport, Houston is also known for its food and popular music. Local specialty cuisines include Cajun, Tex- Mex, Mexican, Vietnamese, Indian, and South- western, and one can find good zydeco, salsa, blues, Western swing, and country-western bands throughout the city. Although down- town has experienced a revival in recent years, much of this activity happens in areas close to downtown, such as the Montrose and the Museum District. In This Issue . . .
