... quiero insistir de nuevo en que fue una organización perfecta. Me habéis dado una oportunidad para interaccionar con gente muy distinta, iniciar posibles colaboraciones y aprender cosas. ¡Muchísimas gracias a los dos!

Here's one delayed comment about the ISMA meeting. I really loved it, had a great time. Thank you very much for this great conference.

As a last touch, please have a look at my homepage of my final view of Mexico.

Quiero decirte que el congreso ha sido para mi una magnífica experiencia, porque nunca había tenido ocasión de seguir el discurso de los acústicos en todas sus variantes (psicológicas, neurológicas y otras perversidades). Me ha encantado y he aprendido mucho.

I would like to thank you for the nice symposium. It was a good forum for exchanging information and view points between scientists with interestingly different backgrounds but with a shared love to music.

I realize that I did in fact not send you any signs of my gratitude for inviting me to the ISMA conference. I found the conference very stimulating and very much appreciated the superb composition of invited speakers which made me meet many new and old friends and learn a lot. Thus, I want to compliment and thank you for arranging this meeting, and I send you warm wishes for a prosperous 2003!

Quería aprovechar este mensaje para agradeceros de Nuevo vuestra invitación. El sentir de todos los investigadores que conozco y que estuvieron en Isma-México ha sido unánime en destacar la originalidad de este congreso. Su novedad ha estado fundamentalmente en la inclusión de sesiones de musicología y museología. Estimo que era un eslabón perdido en otros Ismas en los que he participado. Cada vez hay más trabajos acústicos de instrumentos más especiales, pero no se hace casi nunca un estudio musicológico previo que encuadre histórica y artísticamente el instrumento musical que se analiza. Pienso que esta idea vuestra interdisciplinar va a marcar un nuevo giro en los futuros encuentros de área. Para mí ha sido una experiencia estupenda el poder conversar con musicólogos y conservadores de museos. Así he conocido cuáles son los aspectos que más les preocupan y sobre los cuales debería ir encaminada la investigación acústica futura.
Por ello os reitero mi enhorabuena, tal y como en varias ocasiones os la dirigí en México.

Thank you for so kindly inviting me to participate in Symposium as a guest of ISMA. I very much enjoyed my first visit to Mexico and the very special ISMA.
You are to be congratulated on organizing such a splendid conference, and I will have no hesitation in recommending to the CIMCIM Board the plan you outlined for overlapping CIAMIM / CIMICM Meetings in 2005.

I would thank you both for organizing an excellent conference, and for inviting me to attend and present the conservation viewpoint. I don’t think I have ever attended a conference that showed such a wide range of professional disciplines and expertise. It was unique, and a wonderful experience as a result.
Your hospitality and thoughtfulness was much appreciated. Having been a conference organizer myself I know what a strain it is to pull everything together in the weeks before, and then be ‘on the spot’ for a whole week. Congratulations in making it all work.
I am sure we will be in touch in the near future, and if your plans for 2005 mature, please let me know.
ps. I would be very happy if you could send me the ocarina I had so much fun making. What an excellent addition to the conference programme!

Thanks for hosting me at the most enjoyable and stimulating conference. I particularly liked the … interdisciplinary nature of the conference.

Congratulations on a fine conference. It was very well designed from my view at least, appeared to run without a hitch. I met faces and caught up on things, research and otherwise, from my friends John Geringer and Cliff Madsen. I was generally impressed on the quality of papers and as a result brought home some new ideas, thank you for that as well.

Como tuvimos la interrupción causada por las fiestas de fin de año, nunca tuve la oportunidad de agradecerle formalmente por la organización del congreso de ISMA. La verdad es que lo disfruté mucho, y lo mismo escuché de parte de mis colegas que estuvieron también presentes. Creo que fue todo un éxito, y al menos de mi parte, creo que hubo un buen intercambio de ideas entre investigadores de muy distintos campos.
Me agradó mucho la reunión y creo que fue muy exitosa. Lo felicito por la organización.
