<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Dear all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>It's a great pleasure for me to inform you that the
Einstein Foundation Berlin has agreed funding the research project "Giuseppe
Sarti - A Cosmopolitan Composer in Pre-Revolutionary Europe" including an MEI
based edition of his Italian operas "Fra i due litiganti il terzo gode" and
"Giulio Sabino". The project starting in early 2013 will be a cooperation with
Dörte Schmidt (University of the Ars Berlin) and Bella Brover Lubovsky (Hebrew
University of Jerusalem) who will write a monograph and provide a critical
edition of Sarti's Russian opera "Oleg". We will - of course - work closely
together with our Detmold colleagues.</FONT></DIV>
