Though there are never guarantees in life, this spring seems particularly "tentative" for everyone in the music community. That said, I am happy to have a lot of music to learn in the next few months - both for Quince residencies, and for several solo performances planned in May and beyond! This spring will be especially Babbitt-y, as I will finally FINALLY present the long-planned program of Milton Babbitt's treble voice/piano works with pianist Augustus Arnone on Sunday, May 29 in NYC (details on my schedule page). 

This continues on a Babbitt-heavy end of 2021, which saw the publication of my first professional article - "Breaking Babb: Discovery and Process in Learning Philomel", co-authored with master screecher Tony Arnold. Within, Tony and I discuss some of the practical considerations one may encounter when singing the monster 1964 work for voice and tapes. . .what is the nature of "time"? How do we conjure the correct pitches out of thin air? What's it like singing a duet with an extinct instrument (the RCA Mark II)? Click the link to find out!
