Hi all,

I teach at one of these, so I won't presume to give an unbiased comparison,
but the Really Good Places that do both music and computer music research
would include:

UCSD, UCB, UCSC, McGill, MIT Media Lab, Stanford, Princeton, NYU, Columbia,
Carnegie-Mellon and, as of lately, Harvard.

My apologies to any I've left out unjustly; lists like this are never complete.

cheers
Miller
