A Fistful of Music
Music Newsletter for the Hiram College Library Community
January 2013
Welcome to a new year! Why not erase those cold January nights from your mind with
some great new music? We are fortunate beyond reckoning for the amazing array of music
we have in our library, and continue to add a thousand recordings each year. This time
around, we have operas, symphonies, and concertos; techno, punk, and ambient; string
bands, blues bands, and local bands. We also have artists who spell their names with
symbols other than letters. Any comments, questions or demands can be sent to Jeff
Wanser, [email protected]. We'll make more.
