Editorial

In her first editorial for Music Perception, 15 years and 75 journal issues ago, Professor Lola Cuddy set out her goals including, ''to encourage and nurture the exciting expansion of the interdisciplinary field represented by the journal'' (Cuddy, 2002, p. 1). We are all acutely aware of Professor Cuddy's success, through her scholarship, leadership, and dedication in achieving"”indeed surpassing"”her goals. Professor Cuddy's stewardship, together with the commitment and specialist expertise of the boards of Associate Editors and Consulting Editors past and present, have been integral to the standing and recognition of the journal. Editorial Assistant Douglas Gifford too has given unstinting service since 2002. On behalf of the journal's readers, authors, and University of California Press (UCP), sincere thanks to all.
