This Ross Gay poem put me in a whole different state of being when I heard it this morning. Like a salve for my burnout and numbness. In case you could use the same treatment: rossgay.bandcamp.com/track/catalog-…

Me: (planning a January NYC trip) ooo maybe there's some new-to-me opera on I could catch the Met: Tosca, Boheme, Rigoletto, and Figaro 😑

Really happy to have this analysis out there! And especially happy to have it in this venue. Thanks are due of course to vijay iyer and Mike c Ladd, and also to the editorial team at MTO.

Well shoot. A family health situation means no #musicon22 for me after all. Post all the things so I can feel extra jealous!

Decorations that just appear are one of my favorite things. Big thank you to whoever stuck this tardis onto the af Klint postcard on my office door.

Request for a student: I’m looking for examples of music departments with great collaborative relationships with theater departments. Could be in terms of curriculum, scheduling, performance, etc.

I am dog sitting and have apparently forgotten how to get things done when there is a floof around. That black eyeliner?? Those ears???

Grateful to share that I have been recommended for tenure and promotion. Looks like I'll be sticking around this strange little state!

The Emilie Mayer Project has been a total whirlwind. I am so excited to premiere our student-created edition of her Overture No. 3 in C major this Saturday! I'll be giving a pre-concert lecture about Mayer before the show. uri.edu/news/2023/04/u…

Wowza. I have just read the wrongest piece of writing I have ever read. Each sentence more wrong than the last. The kind of wrong that feels like a lifetime achievement of wrong. If you bump into it today you’ll prob have the same ride. Wheee!

I am trying to use my feet in a different pattern when fiddling and have once again confirmed that I could never have been a drummer.
