Dear blog world, I have a confession. I have a difficult time enjoying Stravinsky choral music. His Mass is okay. His Requiem Canticles are okay. But... I just have not heard a lot of his music that I connect with. It can be difficult for me to follow and nothing catches me, either musically or emotionally. I will work on this because I would really like to actively like Stravinsky.
And with that, I wanted to tell you the good news: I will have three more years to explore Stravinsky and cultivate love for his music and other composers through study. Earlier this week I sent in my official acceptance to the University of Iowa School of Music DMA program. I will be receiving a nice little assistantship. I could not be more thrilled.
And with that, off to memorize recital music and conduct Brahms.
