A reminder that the OU School of Music is inviting applications for an Assistant Professor of Musicology position. The committee will begin its work in about two weeks, so please help spread the word to those in your orbit and holler at me if you have any questions.

#Musicology folks: I'm preparing to teach my seminar Contemporary Issues in Musicology. This class uses 6 recently published monographs as a window into the current state of the field. What books published since 2015 do you feel might be a good candidate?

My essay on Ralph Ellison the audiophile is out in the world. It’s a reflection on writing about music and listening to writing. The collection may not be on the radars of music folks, so do holler if you’d like to read a copy.

I'm not an expert on grief or grieving but in UNSTAGED GRIEF I do make the case for how and why #musicals are. press.uillinois.edu/books/?id=p088…

On this #NationalGriefAwarenessDay, we are considering @jakejohnsonphd's (@OKCU) UNSTAGED GRIEF: Musicals and Mourning in Midcentury America (go.illinois.edu/s25johnson) -- which aims at finding the hidden grief within movie and TV musicals of the long 1960s.
