Presenting at Darkwater Womxn in Music Festival

This weekend I had the privilege of presenting my paper about Rebecca Saunders’ music at Darkwater Womxn in Music Festival. I attended virtually and I deeply appreciate everything Sarah Busman did to create and facilitate the event. My presentation was part of the first event on the first day, so I was able to especially focus on the other presenters and presentations throughout the weekend. Some of my favorite presentations included Didaktic MK’s set, Hyun Ji Choi’s performance of Nadia Boulanger’s Trois Pieces pour Violoncelle et Piano, and UNCP’s Percussion Ensemble’s performance of Annika Socolofsky’s work. Charly Lowry’s keynote address and concert were absolutely spellbinding and so inspiring. I hope I can attend this event in person in the future.
