NEW PERIODICALS BY KAREN LITTLE

This semiannual column lists newly issued periodicals; describes their objectives, for- mats, and contents; and provides information about special issues, title and format changes, mergers, and cessations.

Friends of Gunnar Johansen News- letter. Edited by Gordon Rumson. Biannual. 1997. Subscription: Sikesdi Press, 1102 Bellevue Ave. S.E., Calgary, Alberta Canada T2G 4L1. $15/yr.

This newsletter is dedicated to the search for "reintegrative knowledge and for the fullest use of all human potential" as seen in Gunnar Johansen's grand vision of the reintegration of the arts and sciences. It contains a selection of poems, essays, arti- cles, and book reviews related to Gunnar Johansen and his contemporaries. Also in- cluded are transcriptions of letters and some reprints of performance reviews. Many of the essays are written by the editor.

Interaction: Journal of the Tureck Bach Research Foundation. Tureck Bach Research Foundation. Edited by Rosalyn Tureck. Annual. 1997. Sub- scription: Windrush House, Davenant Road, Oxford OX2 8BX, England. $18/yr.

This journal, first published in 1997, pre- sents the proceedings of the Tureck Bach Research Foundation's annual symposiums. The articles cover such diverse disciplines as physics, botany, mathematics, and music and examine the interconnectivity between them. For example, mathematicians ex- plore how their discipline and their ap- proach to it might benefit the study of music and vice versa.

The articles are of substantial length, and some include bibliographic references; dia- grams and drawings are common. Short bi- ographical sketches of the authors are in- cluded as well as lists of their selected publications.

pality of Bologna. Edited by Marcello Maria Corvino. Monthly except August. Subscription: http://promo- music.com/rivista. Free.

This journal contains interviews with per- formers, articles on early music, and re- views of festivals, concerts, music, and books. Primarily in English, the reviews are short but well written. The articles are of moderate length, and some conclude with a selected bibliography. The online presen- tation is commendable, and the site in- cludes guidelines for contributors.

The Maud Powell Signature temporarily halted publication with volume 2, number 1 because of insufficient funding. The jour- nal, devoted to the contributions and achievements of women in classical music, was published in five issues from summer 1995 through April 1997. Publication of the journal will resume once funding has been secured. Inquiries can be sent to Karen A. Shaffer at The Maud Powell Society, 5333 N. 26th Street, Arlington, VA 22207.
