Here is the collection of reviews and articles which have appeared in the BULLETIN MNEMO (with the exception of those in the last issue). As well as critiques of publications and articles concerning traditional music and dance, the printed newsletter also lets you know about the various projects and activities of the Centre (these texts are however, not available on our site). The photos in the printed newsletter are usually not on the site unless they are necessary to the understanding of the written text.
