And so it goes…
Graduation is coming up. I’m not quite sure what I’m doing this summer, aside from premiering Srebrenica Fields in northern California, and reviewing music history/voice leading for my placement exams at Eastman.
I’m going to miss USC a lot (by which I mean Thornton); it’s been an incredible time of growth, bonding and challenges. My (not-secret) hope is to return for my DMA in a few years, but only if I can swing a full ride. I think Los Angeles has some wonderful opportunities, and while I’ve exploited my resources at USC quite well, I’m hoping to get more involved with the broader contemporary music culture here. Maybe I’ll spend some time in NYC after Eastman? Who knows… I feel very fortunate to have had such a great experience here, but I’m very excited to move on.
