The period 1986-2000 was one of beginnings, with more composing than concerts. As a result, this page shows just a few of those concerts for which Hall has enough information. There are also plenty of communications from performers who contacted Hall to apprise her of their performances (sometimes years after the fact), but unfortunately the majority are not listed here because complete information was never available. In addition, during this period Hall has printed reports of performances from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) taking place in two dozen countries around the world, yet details of these performances were never possible to fully ascertain from foreign entities reporting the performances.
