CV, Publications, and Web Links
I'm pleased to share the many organizations and friends I've worked with over the years in my musical experiences.
Doctoral Dissertation You are invited to peruse through my dissertation from my research at Notre Dame. “Rehearsal and Performance Issues in Steve Reich’s Tehillim: Unlocking the Process” provides an in-depth look at the various influences of Reich’s tremendous instrumental/vocal chamber work, and offers rehearsal and performance solutions for musicians aspiring to give their own performance of Tehillim.
Choral Journal Article “Tempo is Affect, Duration is Drama: The Conducting Methodology of Carmen-Helena Téllez,” appearing in the 2023 November/December issue of Choral Journal.
Choral Scholar & American Choral Review Article This is my first postdoctoral publication, entitled “The Music of Johann Sebastian Bach as a Western Influence on Steve Reich’s Tehillim,” and is a natural offshoot of my dissertation research.
“Friede auf Erden” Translation You are welcome to use my personal translation of Arnold Schoenberg’s famed choral work. Kindly reference me in your program notes as the translator.
