Detailed program information is also available there, and hotel 
reservations can still be made through the "hotel" link on the same 
site.  

All sessions (including a special panel on intellectual property
issues) will take place at the  conference hotel, the Radisson Plaza
Lord Baltimore. Special events  include a concert at the Peabody
Conservatory of Music, as well as  tours and a reception in the elegant
Great Hall of the Library of  Congress in Washington, D.C.  A highlight
of the conference will be  Keynote Speaker Anthony Seeger,
anthropologist, audiovisual archivist,  musician, and currently
professor of ethnomusicology at UCLA.  

The annual ISMIR Conference is the first established international 
forum for those involved in work on accessing digital musical 
materials. It reflects the tremendous growth of music-related data 
available either locally or remotely through networks and the 
consequent need to search this  content and retrieve music and musical 
information  efficiently and effectively. 

We hope to see many of you at ISMIR 2003!
