minstrel: Bardic registry

[Cynthia J Ley]

Greetings, my Lord, and well met! :-)

A lot of us teach bardic-oriented classes too. When I was assisting Her
Ladyship Briana with the Registry, this was information she had
requested. Is this something you wish to continue?

As a point of interest, the Rivers Campus of the University of Ithra will
be hosting its annual Music and Dance Ithra the third weekend of March.
The name is a bit of a misnomer--the event has broadened its scope
considerably since its inception and now includes all of the performance
arts. We believe classes are important to encourage train both new
performers in an art or two and current performers interested in trying
something new. This event calls in teachers and students from all over An
Tir. If you would like more information, please contact the Rivers
Chancellor, Lady Ruadhan Suilghlas, at kathyd at teleport.com.

As a taste, our 1998 session included:
