acknowledgments First and foremost, we would like to acknowledge all of our contributors to this book and cd, who agreed to be part of this project for little or no money. Second, the project would never have begun without the tireless work of Sabine Hrechdakian putting together the “Music from Nature” issue of Terra Nova (Summer 1997, vol. 2, no. 3), which was the genesis of this present work. We also acknowledge the support of her partner the late Mark Sandman and express deep sympathy over his early and tragic death. Over the years many musicians and music aficionados have helped us refine how music can be a part of ecology, including Charlie Keil, Michael Pestel, Malcolm Goldstein, Chris Watson, Andra McCartney, Jim Cummings, Sarah Peebles, René van Peer, Peter Warshall, Gayle Young, Jason Reinier, Ben Neill, Charlie Morrow, Jim Metzner, David Abram, Jim Motavalli, Ellen Kushner, Jukka Mikkola, Hans Ulrich Werner, Walter Tilgner, Norman Lowrey, Philip Bimstein, Richard Teitelbaum, Annea Lockwood, Paul Winter, Dave Aftandilian , Oliver Lowenstein, Lisa Garrison, Alexandra Christy, Scott McVay, Jennifer Sahn, Laney Harrison, Paul Pannhuysen, David Hykes, Paul Godwin, Steve Gorn, David JaVe, and JeVrey Goldberg. Thanks to the New Jersey Institute of Technology for giving us a place to call home, to the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation for supporting our initial eVorts on this topic, and to the keoh Foundation for a grant to support the preparation of this book. Finally, deepest gratitude to Mia Söderlund and Matthew Ebinger for their invaluable assistance in putting this together. Go outside, keep listening. There’s always more to hear. note to the second edition The Disc of Music and Nature is now a virtual CD available at http://www.wesleyan.edu/wespress/musicandnaturecd [ ix ] ...
