PhD, Columbia University My research is concerned broadly with musical mediation—those things which music must pass through in order to exist. I approach mediation through three modes of inquiry—historical investigation of experimental music, philosophical reflection into music’s ontologies and affects, and phenomenological-subjective music analysis. My historical work is concentrated on U.S. and European experimental music, particularly the lives and work of Morton Feldman and Julius Eastman. Currently, I am completing a microhistorical study of the premier of Feldman’s music for the Rothko Chapel in 1972. I document the translation of Feldman’s music from being the sound of modernist abstraction into an ecumenically religious sound world useful for contemporary ritual. I examine the premier performance from numerous perspectives—Feldman’s own, his patrons Dominique and John de Menil, the viola soloist Karen Philips, and the contested legacy of Mark Rothko overshadowing them all.
I advise a wide range of PhD students and am particularly interested to work with researchers investigating musical modernism (broadly construed), experimental music, music philosophy, LGBTQ topics, and science/technology studies. I work closely with my students to develop both research and professional skills and am particularly keen to help them develop non-pathological writing habits. My advisees’ current research includes experimental music as interpretive labor, the re-mediation of U.S. musicals from film to radio, the affects and semiotics of Japanese popular music, and transatlantic networks of gay modernists and their intimate publics. In addition to my work in Bienen’s music studies department, I work closely with the Institute for New Music and am affiliated faculty with the interdisciplinary clusters in Critical Theory, Global Avant-Garde and Modernist Studies, and Gender and Sexuality Studies.
