I’m grateful to cellists briar darling and Freya Schack-Arnott for performing cello and electronics solo “Can’t Take You Anywhere” throughout 2024. darling performed it at Ball State University’s Festival of New Music, as well as at the Splice Institute Alumni Concert at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo. Schack-Arnott performed it at the Australasian Computer Music Conference at AIM Sydney.

We received an Urbana Arts and Culture Grant for a new program called All Score Urbana: Music and Dance. We offered open to the public collaboration sessions in the fall at the co-sponsor Urbana-Champaign Independent Music Center. This led to a final performance at co-sponsor Rose Bowl Tavern of participant works by teaching artists Jacob Henss, Kerrith Livengood, Brant Roberts, and Peter Tijerina.
