A Colloquy in the Journal of the American Musicological Society that I co-convened is coming out in Fall 2021. My collaborator is Rhae Lynn Barnes, and the colloquy is on Early American Music and the Construction of Race. It’s based on a Fall 2019 workshop on hosted by the McNeil Center for Early American Studies at UPenn (schedule here": http://ushistoryscene.com/article/early-american-music-and-the-construction-of-race/ )
Another collaborative project is American Contact: Intercultural Encounter and the History of the Book, co-organized with Rhae Lynn Barnes. This is an edited volume (under contract with the University of Pennsylvania Press) and companion instructional website that interrogates the use of material texts in cross-cultural encounters in the Americas by focusing on single objects. It started with a multi-institutional symposium at the University of Pennsylvania and Princeton University, April 23-25, 2020 [virtual due to COVID-19]. https://americancontact.princeton.edu/
This project is funded by grants from the University of Pennsylvania and the Princeton University Humanities Council’s Global Initiatives and Magic Grants for innovation (and other bodies).
