A Fistful of Music
Music Newsletter for the Hiram College Library Community
March 2014
Maybe the weather will break, or perhaps it will break us. To fortify yourself against the
inclement onslaught, try some delicious music. We have all sorts of interesting items this
month, from jazz vocalists to opera singers, Mexican electronica to Slovenian melodies, and
ragas to rags. You should find something. Any comments, questions or demands can be
sent to Jeff Wanser, [email protected]. We'll make more.
