The first meeting of the Brazilian Music Society took place in November 8, 1996, during the American Musicological Society annual meeting in Baltimore, Maryland, and the next meeting of the BMS will take place on Friday, October 31, 1997, between 12:30 and 2 p.m, in Phoenix, Arizona, during the AMS annual meeting (30 October - 2 November 1997).
