Dear readers, where art thou? For you, I prepared a detailed listing of my previous blogs – in case you need to find a piece on a particular subject in the archive, this will save you time. They are organized in four categories: cultural viewpoint, composing, feminism and event-related.
This little clean-up was prompted by my upcoming talk on Composing in Context at the NYU Composer Forum, coming up on September 26 at 7 PM (it is of course free, and all are welcome). The Composer Forum takes place at the Pless Building Black Box Theater, University Place and Washington Square Park. Please note that I will not selfishly talk only about my music but instead focus on synergies with other 21st century composers!
Guest speakers on this season’s NYU Composer Forum include:
Dr. Jason Eckard (NYU faculty) Tuesday, September 5
Dr. Pedro da Silva (NYU Faculty) Tuesday, September 12
Herschel Garfein Tuesday, September 19
Elodie Lauten Tuesday, September 26
Mark Adamo Tuesday, October 24
